Strikes For Special Olympics

On Saturday, December 8, 2012, Holiday Lanes, a member of the Bowling Proprietors of America (BPAA), hosted a Strikes for Special Olympics fundraiser with over 100 bowlers in attendance and raised $3015.93. This fundraiser benefits the Special Olympics of Louisiana. Strikes for Special Olympics is part of the Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR) campaign. The LETR is presented by more than 85,000 law enforcement officers worldwide who raise money and public awareness for Special Olympics. The LETR is the largest grassroots fundraiser and public awareness vehicle for Special Olympics. During the month of December, Holiday Lanes is devoted to raising money and awareness for Special Olympics. There are two other ways to participate throughout the month of December:
