Wii Bowling Pays Off

Matthew’s Rockies baseball team had their bowling fundraiser yesterday. Matthew made an extra effort to go, and finished with the second-highest average on the team…guess all that Wii bowling paid off.

112…Jason

97…Matthew

96…Philip

95…Kells

94…Gracie

90…Stephen

88…Tyler

71…Daniel

Instead of selling Cookie Dough, players get pledges for how many pins they’ll knock down. For Matthew, a pledge of five cents per pin would calculate as follows97 avg/game X 3 games X $0.05 = $14.55. You can send pledges to me or Mt. Paran, with checks made out to Mt. Paran North Sports. Last year this fund-raiser was supposedly raised more than past cookie dough sales. Unlike county parks, who receive tax dollars for baseball programs and field maintenance, Mt. Paran Sports are completely self-sufficient…not even receiving funds from the church.
