2008 Community Alliance Super Bowl
Twelve teams and 46 bowlers participated in our first bowling event. We raised $2,078.50 after expenses. (Plus an extra $150 from chase volunteers).
Strikes were bowled, spares were picked up, prizes were won, and fun was had by everyone.
The winning team was “JAG,” consisting of Barry Patrick, Chip Wagner, John Gafner, and Kenny Smulski. Coming in second was “Who Knows,”, captain Gale Wickel. Our third place team was one of Hospice and Palliative Care representatives, “M and M's,” with Stacy Weames, captain.
Our top fundraising team was “JAG”. They raised $200. Thank you
The top score by an individual was 573 for the three games and was by Kenny Smulski. Barry Patrick finished with a 547 for the second best score.
