Coquitlam bowlers have a cause that's right up their alley.
From Dec. 1 to Jan. 31, Coquitlam Bowl will join 45 bowling centres across the province taking part in B.C. Bowls for Kids.
The 28th annual campaign will again be raising money for Variety - The Children's Charity. And Coquitlam Bowl has been involved since day one, raising more than $200,000 for Variety.
"We've been in the community for quite some time and fundraise throughout the year for Variety," said Brian Madaski, who inherited the business from his grandmother and dad, who bought the centre in 1959.
Bernice Scholten, executive director at Variety, said, "Partnerships with organizations like Bowl BC and Youth Bowling Canada helps to ensure that Variety will always be there for families in every community."
B.C. Bowls for Kids has raised $3 million for Variety. The campaign is open to everyone and those wishing to put a team together can contact events co-ordinator Louise Duffy at 604-320-0505 or email [email protected].
