The 7th Annual Lemetta Dause Memorial Bowling Tournament is set for Sunday, Feb. 4, 1:30 p.m., at Galaxy Bowling Center in Richmond.
The tournament is organized by the Madison County Bowling Association (MCBA) in memory of Mrs. Dause, who was cared for by Hospice Care Plus.
Judy Poynter of the Madison County Bowling Association happily counts funds raised at a recent Lemetta Dause Memorial Tournament. This year’s event is Feb. 4.
According to tournament organizer Harvey Poynter, the event has raised just over $33,000 in its first five years. He says MCBA has set a goal to top $50,000 with this year’s tournament.
Every participant will receive a ticket for a chance to take home one of several door prizes, given away at the end of the tournament. Prizes are also awarded at that time, and a large silent auction will be held.
The entry fee is $20 for the 3-6-9 no-tap tournament, which is open to all bowlers. The fee includes four games.
Corporate sponsorships of $500, $250, and $100 are still available and include publicity.

To Be Thanked for His Service
Honoring those who have served our country is one of our greatest joys. Not everyone understands how important it can be for a veteran to be formally recognized for their service, especially as the end of life nears.
To Have Coffee with an Old Friend
When we ask our patients what’s most important to them or what’s on their minds, what we are trying to do is learn. We can’t meet a need that we haven’t learned about. Many needs are relatively obvious and easy to meet: a walker for support, a new medication to treat a new symptom, for instance. Other needs take time to reveal themselves, but they are no less important.
