Perfect Game for St. Clair Shores Co-Worker During Michigan WOTM Bowling Tournament


Left to right are Ann Lash, WOTM Michigan State Bowling Chairman, co-worker Karin Dupre of St Clair Shores, MI Chapter 69, and Jeanette Henry, Michigan State Sports Chairman.

> At the Michigan WOTM 57th Annual Bowling Tournament, held on the weekend of April 8th-9th 2006, in Saginaw, Karin Dupre, St Clair Shores, MI Chapter 69, showed up for competition in a big way! She bowled a perfect 300 game in a 713 series. Her first game was 244, followed by her 300 and ended her series with a 169. Entering the USBC sanctioned tournament, her average was a respectable 177 and though she appeared calm and confident, Karin revealed later, "I was shaking inside”.

Karin will be receiving a ring and a watch for 100 pins over average for tournament play and she’ll be awarded various patches for her accomplishment from USBC.
All the co-workers present were encouraging her on. “I believe that this is the first in the history of the WOTM State Bowling Tournaments held in Michigan”, said Jeanette Henry, Michigan State Sports Chairman.

Karin will be receiving an award from WOTM International and Jeanette Henry will be presenting Karin with a plaque as well.
