The Branch 9 Ron St. Clair Memorial MDA Bowl-a-thon was held on Saturday, April 16th. Over 100 Branch 9 members, friends and family gathered at the Park Tavern in St. Louis Park for bowling, 50/50 raffles, a silent auction and a chance to win a $1,500 vacation get-away. If you weren’t there, you missed all of the fun! Donnie Virden’s Lake Street Station team took away the trophy for Best Series, and Lake Street station raised over $1200 in pledges. Jeff Mattson, (Brooklyn Park) won 1st place for Best Individual Series. Stacie Ellingson (Anoka) won the vacation drawing. Joe Rian (Richfield) raised over $400 & Joel Carter (East Side) raised $325. Brooklyn Center won the station breakfast for the best silent auction basket. The creativity and variety of baskets this year was fabulous!
