A new challenge is sweeping the social media realm and has Country stars such as Chase Rice, Dierks Bentley, Cole Swindell, Lee Brice, Luke Bryan and Kelby Ray (The Cadillac Three) dumping ice water on their heads. The ice bucket challenge goal is to raise money and awareness for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.

If dared to take the challenge, which goes by the hastag #strikeoutALS, participants have 24 hours to complete the challenge, or to make a donation. Those that have been challenged to step up to the plate include Kip Moore, Jerrod Niemann, Randy Houser, Tyler Farr, Jon Stone (American Young), Brothers Osborne, Charles Kelley (Lady Antebellum), and Jake Owen.

Watch a few of the #icebucketchallenge attempts below.
