This past weekend, the Squires and Counselors from Fr. Daniel A. Lord Columbian Squires Circle #801 traveled to Lansing, Michigan, to participate in the Michigan Columbian Squires State Bowling Tournament and Bowl-A-Thon for Special Days, a camp for children suffering with cancer. Over $1000 was raised, and everyone had a great time for a good cause. All three games were done as Cosmic Bowling, which means that the lights are turned off, and some of the balls ‘glow’ due to black lights that are placed throughout the bowling center. The third game was a 9 pin no-tap, which means if you get 9 pins on your first ball, it counts as a strike. I never do well in either one of those. The scores reported from the Royal Scot Bowling Center in Lansing for Circle #801 (including me) will be announced shortly.

UPDATE: Bowling Results
Here are the bowling results:
“Sugar” Sean Roland (Circle Deputy Chief Squire): 36+26+39=101
Brian “Big Show” Hopper (Area Chairman & Circle Chief Squire): 96+96+91=283
Bruce “Our Olympic Hero” Hopkins (State Chief Squire of Michigan): 94+110+110=314
“Stone Cold” Ray Bilyk (aka The Lion King) (Counselor): 173+169+127=469
The boys did well, but I was pretty embarassed considering I have a 300 game under my belt. Oh well…
