Bowlers Raise Funds for Fraternal Alliance of Texas Scholarships
On Saturday, February 11, 2012, 118 bowlers gathered at Fiesta Lanes in New Braunfels, Texas, for a day filled with fun, fraternalism, and good, ol’ fashioned, clean competition to compete for the traveling trophy, which will be displayed in their home office, and individual awards to raise funds for the Fraternal Alliance of Texas scholarships. These bowlers represented Catholic Life Insurance (two teams), KJT (three teams), KJZT (one team), Sons of Hermann (six teams), SPJST (five teams), and Woodmen of the World (seven teams). The day ended in a fraternal way with all participants having a fun-filled day rekindling old friendships and making new acquaintances while bowling to raise funds for the Fraternal Alliance of Texas scholarship program. The bowling brought in $1702,
silent auction $721.50 while tickets sold on the day of the tournament raised $35 making the total raised on
February 11 at $2,458.50. Ticket sales will continue until the Fraternal Alliance of Texas annual convention
