Liverpool — To the editor:
Special thank you to Board member Rob Just, who chaired the tenth annual Bowl-a-thon on Sunday, Feb. 7; sub-committee members John Cerrone, Nancy Dutelle, Ann Trojnar and Joe Trojnar; Liverpool High School teacher Alan Pascale; and others who solicited funds from sponsors and gifts from donors, attended the event, handled publicity, and took pictures. We owe our gratitude to the students, teachers, administrators, and community members who bowled and all who made pledges to support the bowlers.
We acknowledge Flamingo Bowl for hosting the event and the following individuals and businesses for sponsoring a lane at the Bowl-a-thon: All Seasons Mechanical; Boom Babies; Budmen family; Custom Logo; David Tamber, attorney; Holiday Ice; Lockheed Martin Employees’ Federated Fund; and Solvay Bank. Seneca Savings sponsored three lanes, enough to award a scholarship in their name. We are also grateful to Barb Martens; ChuckleBerries; Custom Logo; Dunkin Donuts; Edge Federal Credit Union; Francesca’s Pizza and Italian Kitchen; Gold’s Gym; Laser Solutions; Lockheed Martin Employees’ Federated Fund; Miracle Nails; Molly and Mike Scuderi; Outback Steakhouse; Rick Fensterer; Ross Langevin – WB Mason; Santangelo’s Restaurant; Shear Forte; Starbucks; Upstate Medical Center; Wegmans; Wonderworks; and Wrap It Up for donating gift baskets, gift cards, and other prizes for participants, winning bowlers and top fundraiser. Please do whatever you can to support the businesses that support us in our quest for scholarship money.
All participants were eligible to win gift cards and other prizes. Special prizes were awarded to Ben Scuderi, the winning student bowler; Juliana Basla, top student fundraiser; and Ken Brenner, top adult bowler. An enthusiastic group of 104 bowlers raised enough money for nine scholarships to be awarded to members of the Liverpool High School Class of 2016.
As always, we are grateful for the outpouring of support from the school district and the greater Liverpool community. Thank you!
