On the afternoon of Sunday, March 9, 2008 , District 1 held its annual tournament at the Brunswick Playmor Bowl in West Mifflin . Sixty-four children registered and participated in this event. Depending on the child’s age, one, two or three games of bowling were played. While the children were bowling, door prizes were awarded to many lucky youth.
     Even if you did not win a door prize, you were still given a gift: Kohl’s donated a variety of stuffed animals. During bowling, every child was able to select from the variety. A cute sight was seeing the little ones carry the animals with them; they would not let them out of their sight.
     Following bowling, everyone went to St. Elias church hall for the awards presentation, prizes, and refreshments. A craft table was set up so that the children could create their own Easter decorations. The refreshments were served first: pizza, snacks, cake and pop. Following this, National Officer Kitty Cherevka began announcing the results while Athletic Director Mike Pillar handed out the trophies. The winners of the events are listed separately in the Magazine.
     The day ended with many happy faces leaving the church hall. Thanks to all the district officers and volunteers who worked to help to make this a success.
