The 5th annual Greater Binghamton Ice Bowl took place on Feb. 3, at the Campville Commons. Spearheaded by Tournament Director Rick Powell, and under the direction of the non-profit Greater Binghamton Disc Golf Club (GBDGC), they had a goal of $10,000. This goal was nearly reached with over $7,000 raised for Tioga County Rural Ministry’s Food Pantry.

Heading this list of generous sponsors was Adam Weitsman, owner of Upstate Shedding and Weitsman Recycling. Weitsman, Title Sponsor for the event, generously donated $1,000 to GBDGC.
In addition, both Wagner and Double Aught Lumber donated $500 each. This, of course, in no way shadows the numerous sponsors that made this total donation possible.
