This year’s 5th Annual IBEW Sacramento Organizing Committee Charity Bowl was held on April 30 at Country Club Lanes in Sacramento. Families and friends of IBEW 1245 members, as well as members from other unions, joined us for a fun day of bowling, pizza and friendship. This year, there were two highest-score winning teams!
“Our Charity Bowl had a great turn out!” said Sacramento Regional Organizing Committee Member Alvin Dayoan, who helped to coordinate the event. “We look forward to future endeavors.”
We had approximately 65 bowlers in attendance, sold hundreds of raffle tickets, and collected many donations and contributions. Altogether, we raised $2533 for our designated charity, the Hospice of the Foothills organization.
