Starting December 12th Discraft and Ledgestone are happy to announce the “Twelve Days of Ledgestone.” We will be making one new announcement each day from December 12th through December 23rd. Twelve exciting announcements will be made in regards to details for the Ledgestone family of events in 2023. In addition, new to the slate for the 12 Days announcements this year: each day will include a special sale/discount or giveaway at the Ledgestone Retail site. December 12th will kick off our special sales with a 30% off sale of all apparel at the site and a special donation to the Paul McBeth Foundation. 100% of the profits from all website sales on December 12th will go to the Paul McBeth Foundation. Dustin Leatherman, Executive Director of the Paul McBeth Foundation, has enjoyed a close working relationship with the Ledgestone group and sees a lot of synergies between the McBeth Foundation and Ledgestone. "Currently we have a team in Uganda installing two disc golf courses. This project was only made possible due to the unmatched generosity of Ledgestone. Ledgestone has been a key partner from day one, and have been critical to the success of the Paul McBeth Foundation. We are excited to partner with them in this new way as we look to share disc golf with the world,” finished Leatherman.

What kind of things can you expect to hear about with this announcement? “We plan on announcing several partner deals, the course schedule, player pack details, the 2023 Ledgestone disc release schedule and many other exciting announcements,” said Nate Heinold, Ledgestone TD. The team will be going all out for the 2023 Ledgestone event with record turnout expected.
The Ledgestone event in 2023 is expected to generate a professional payout of over $150,000, spurred by the fundraising prowess of the Ledgestone team. “2023 will continue Ledgestone’s place in the sport as one of the best payout events of the year. We will continue to invest significant resources into making sure our touring pros can stay on the road and compete,” said Heinold. The event expects to add a Ledgestone record amount of added cash to the pro purse in 2023.
