Hollywood Player Goes Bowling for Buddies


On November 7, 2011, over one hundred Best Buddies CA Jobs program supporters showed up at Lucky Strike LA Live! ready to raise a little money for the Jobs program and compete for a trophy and bragging rights for the next year.

Sponsored by Hollywood Player, the movie-themed video game site, Bowling for Buddies included the bowling tournament, a poker tournament, the chance to challenge a pool champion, video gaming tournament, and amazing raffle prizes. Not to mention great food and one of LA’s best locations, Lucky Strike LA Live!

Best Buddies CA Jobs invited our employer partners to participate by sponsoring bowling teams from their companies and we are proud to say that eight of them brought teams (FIJI Water brought 3 teams!), with an additional three company teams coming from the community. Additionally, we received donations for gift bags and raffle prizes from many other companies in our community.

The night was full of fun and friendship, but more than that, it was full of our mission.  Plans are underway for the 2012 tournament, bigger, better and closer!  Stay tuned and start training to win back the trophy from Goldline International.
