Earth That Was: Browncoat Bowling [March 22, 2014]

Event: Bowling at Bonnie Doon Lanes
Intrepid Reporter: Andy

Gutter, spare, STRIKE!!!

Three words that anyone would recognize. Bowling was this month’s shindig. We had a good turn out on a windy day, with new people from town and literally from across the globe. Setting up and playing in 3 lanes side by side, bowling balls were thrown, tossed and one or two bounced down the lanes. And some of us tried to beat the odds by bowling two balls at once but with no luck. Hey, were not professionals, we’re here to have fun and raise money for charity.

After a somewhat successful afternoon of bowling, we headed to Boston Pizza for food and drinks to socialize and reminisce about the elusive strike that never was and to get to know one another, and become friends. Which is the way the ‘verse should
be.

Between our bottle drive and bowling, a total of $480.00 was raised for Valour Place with a big thank you to Harold Parlee for his generous donation. The money will go to a good cause.

April is Calgary Expo time and the guest list is fantastic, something for everyone. As always, the Alberta Browncoats will have a charity booth (#200) stocked with shiny goodies.

Until then, stay shiny!!
