http://sovtchittenden.blogspot.com/p/2012-team-bowling-teams.html
Please contact Dave or  Karen Bogdan at 865-3840 or kraze1@comcast.net if you want to bowl and are not on a team or if you are on a team and cannot bowl!  Remember, this is a team sport and your team will be at a disadvantage at the competition if anyone is absent. Therefore, everyone must commit to competing on Sunday January 22nd  or you will not be allowed to bowl.

Unfortunately, the team bowling schedule conflicts with Alpine Skiing again this year.  If you wish to do both Alpine Skiing and Team Bowling, we will form bowling teams of Alpine skiers.  The Alpine bowling teams may make up bowling as a team during open bowling at Champlain Lanes but must commit to attending the bowling competition on Sunday January 22nd.  If you do not intend to compete Sunday January 22nd, please do not sign up for team bowling.

NOTE: All athletes MUST have a current medical on file PRIOR to the start of practice or you will not be allowed to start practice!  If you are not sure your medical is current, please contact Karen Bogdan at 865-3840.
