Tonight, I attended the Brockton Bowling Association’s Hall of Fame Dinner, my first as a member of the board, inducting Tony Attardo and Maureen Morrison. Both spoke of the need to pass along this great game to our youth, teaching them not only the fundamentals of the game, but also proper conduct and etiquette. Tony’s speech was the one that really spoke to me however, telling about how he still enjoys the game even after 7 different back surgeries; after hearing of this, Tony will certainly serve as inspiration to me going forward.
The photo I got of all of the Hall of Famers in attendance this year is up on the association’s Facebook page.
Addition to scrapbook: Aside from the Hall of Famers, there was one guest I knew was coming that I wanted a photo with; someone I originally “met” online and persuaded to bowl at Westgate Lanes. I haven’t been keeping up the “scrapbook,” so the photo with my friend is the new addition to that page, which you may view here. This is also the first photo of me in the shirt that I now wear to association events as a member of the board.
