The California Bowling Writers have designated their annual charity endeavor as a repeat of sending phone cards to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. An auction at the last CBW annual meeting and luncheon, plus numerous individual donations raised $550 toward the effort. Following additional memorial donations by individuals, the amount grew. Topping it off was a letter from the California WBA that the California Bowlers BVL Committee had granted $2000 to CBW for our phone card effort!

The amount is now $3000 to be used for the purchase of phone cards for our troops. The club is excited about the successful venture and at this writing the cards are in the mail and will arrive in time for Christmas.

The CBW annual meeting and luncheon is held in conjunction with the CWBA annual meeting and convention events so watch for further information on date and time or better yet, check the CBW website at www.calbowlingwriters.org for updated information. The CBW luncheons have proven to be special events and this year is going to be no different so plan on attending.
