Dear Members:

Our final tournament of 2007-2008 was held at Signature Lanes on May 3rd and 4th. 63 members competed for nearly $7,800 in prize money. Thanks to Dan and Dianne Hoffman of Hoffman Sharpening for their continued support of the MBA. Brandon Baker won his first title and Mike English won Bowler of the Year. There were a bunch of honor scores shot both Saturday and Sunday… check the list below.

If you have any suggestions, rule changes, locations, etc please let us know within the next few weeks. Also, we will probably be looking to add a person or two to the board, if anyone is interested please shoot us a letter or an email.
