725 – La Verendrye Tuesday Night Men’s League
Susan stills continues to bowl at LaVerendrye Monday Night league and annually competes in several local and provincial tournaments. I am truly blessed to be joining my Dad and friends in the Hall of Fame. Bowling is an amazing game and I have been fortunate to be able to compete for many years. Now, I still enjoy bowling, but it’s more for the people than the competition. It truly is a sport for life!
