This year we will be sending at least half of the money raised to purchase bowling kits for the veterans ($500 each). We are soliciting local bowlers who have family in military now and will draw for sending the kits to their active units. The rest will go to the SOLV (Support Our Local Veterans) tournament held during Veterans' Day week throughout the Dallas area bowling leagues.
