Strike Out Child Abuse, Bowling Event

May 6, 2010- There comes a time in every man and woman’s life when a crucial decision must be made – to bowl, or not to bowl?  On May 6, 2010, over 200 people answered that question by donning their best game faces and stylish bowling shoes to participate in Voices For Children’s Strike Out Child Abuse event.  Friends gathered to enjoy cocktails and appetizers of sushi, quesadillas and pizza and to support the end of child abuse and child neglect in Miami-Dade County.

Twenty-nine teams competed for trophies which were given to the first and last place teams.  Team Appelrouth, which was led by board member Gail Appelrouth, received a trophy for receiving a score of 366.  Team Tennis Terrors, led by team captain Robin Connell, received a score of 939 and took home the trophy for first place. 

The real winners of the night, however, were the children.  The event not only gave awareness to the important issue of child abuse within our community, but also raised over $12,000. 

A special thanks to all of those who participated in the evening. In particular, Voices For Children would like to thank board member Andrea Steinacker, for her hard work in conceptualizing the evening, generating awareness of the night and Being A Voice.
