April 2006—
I want to extend my sincere thanks to all of
the bowlers and IGBO representatives who
support these ongoing events. All information
about the Fundraising events is mailed (and emailed)
to the league representatives that should
be passing along to their respective leagues. In
addition, I post it on the IGBO e-mail group.
If you are a league representative and not receiving
information from me, please get in
touch with me and I can check into it.
Currently taking place (at the time this article
is being written) is the Mail In Tournament for
Annual in Kansas City, MO. Entry forms were
sent to league IGBO representatives in December.
The tournament took place during 2
consecutive weeks from January 22, 2006 –
February 11, 2006. Entries are still coming in
and results will be distributed by the end of
March. Thanks to Richard Aaronson for his
hard work at compiling the entries.
Next up is the Multi-City Raffle for the Mid
Year tournament in Detroit MI. Each league
representative was sent 40 tickets in February
to sell on their respective leagues. There will
be 10 winners from the event. First prize is
$500, 2nd prize is $200 and 3rd prize is $100.
In addition, the top 3 winners also receive a
Storm Bowling Ball and a free entry to the
IGBO Tournament. There will also be cash
prizes to the 4th through 10th winners. All
tickets are a donation of $1.00. This means if
you are in the US, it is $1.00 (US), if you are
in Canada, it is $1.00 (Canadian), etc. The
payout will also be adjusted for this: if a Canadian
wins, the cash prize they will receive will
be in Canadian dollars. Winning tickets will
be drawn on Sunday, May 28, 2006 in Kansas
City. Please see your league representative for
tickets. And as an incentive, the Detroit Committee
has donated a free-entry to the representative
that sells the most tickets. If you
need additional tickets to sell, please contact
me.
I do appreciate all the support throughout
IGBO. Unlike the other IGBO committees,
this one relies on many people to function.
Your suggestions are greatly appreciated and
will be given full consideration. Please give me
a call at (631) 630 1478 (home) or send e-mail
to todd.denmark@mercer.com.
