It was a cold and stormy morning, but the bowling went on as planned last Saturday. With five teams, we planned four 8-end games with each team receiving one bye during the day. The winning team – Nikki Schrager, Gary Knox, and Jason Chien – didn’t have to play the final game because it wasn’t possible for them to lose. Therefore, the last game was cancelled and we all went inside to warm up.

What if you threw a party and then someone with a birthday showed up? Well, it happened last Saturday. Erwin Vista (Mr. Vista to his friends and students) was celebrating his birthday and invited a bunch of his friends. We had coaches, put every single set of loaner bowls into use, enjoyed the fresh, homemade cookies provided by Gary Knox and just plain had an enjoyable day. We even managed to squeeze in a triples game that came down to the last end to decide the winner.
