Bowl ‘Strikes for Seagull’ At Verdes Tropicana Bowl
WEST PALM BEACH, Fl – May 25, 2015 – Strikes for Seagull, the annual bowling fundraiser that benefits Seagull Services, takes place this year at Verdes Tropicana Bowl on Sunday, June 5, 2016.
Seagull Services invites families, friends, and businesses to join in an afternoon of bowling that promises a little competition and a lot of entertainment. Registration begins at 2:30 p.m., and bowling is from 3-5 p.m.
The family-friendly afternoon includes two hours of bowling, a silent auction, raffle prizes and complementary pizza and soda.
“We’re happy to host Strikes for Seagull again this year because it’s a great event for families to participate in together,” said Elizabeth McDermott, Director of Special Events at Seagull Services. “Friends or family members can bowl as many games as possible and enjoy complementary pizza and soda within the two hours all for a single price of $25.”
Several area business and organizations are sponsoring the event, including Gulf Stream Insurance, Petals for Purpose, Nozzle Nolen and Searcy Law.
“We’re also thankful for our lane sponsors who make it possible for our program participants to bowl in Strikes for Seagull too,” McDermott said.
Signing on as lane sponsors are Palm Beach Kennel Club, American Metal Fabricators, and Fred Apel.
