Last year we road Seattle to Portland for Team in Training which was 204 miles total. This is my good friend Spike and me at Mile marker 100 of 112 miles that day eating creamsicles. This is a local delicacy made in the middle of nowhere Oregon! I crashed at mile 70, hence the bandages, ouch!
Over the next few months Freeway Lanes is mobilized to raise money for the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society. I represent Freeway Lanes in Team in Training, a division of the society. I participate in team sporting events that support each other, and help spread the commitment to the cause. My Wife and I are both riding our bicycles 100 miles around Lake Tahoe, and with five of our friends we are committed to raising over $25,000!
Freeway Lanes staff does their part by offering a 50/50 raffle to each of the nightly leagues. This year, there will not only be the 50% of the pot prize, but great prizes awarded at the end of the drive. Every time you buy a 50/50 you get a chance at other great prizes. The prizes will be announced shortly, but please help us by supporting this raffle. Each time you do 50% of your money goes to finding a cure against blood born cancers and lymphomas.
My Wife will also be hosting a ladies wine tasting and shopping party at Freeway Lanes of Solon. Details will soon be posted on this site, and around the bowling center.
I am also hosting a Texas Holdem tournament at the beautiful Pine Lake Trout Club. $200 gets you an entrance into the tournament, a dinner, and beverages. It is a great setting and the top prize is always something to be proud of. Last year we had over 40 participants.
I feel it is important to make personal commitments to help others. I am proud of all the organizations the Freeway Community helps. We made donations of money or services to over 40 different organizations last year! The bowlers, the employees, and owner’s all work together to make a difference in our own way. If you would like to make your own donation directly to the cause, please follow the following link:
