STUDENTS GET A BOOST FROM BOWLERS

Generates over $4,000!

The 9th Annual OABA Bowling For Scholarships event, recently held at Varsity Lanes, Bowling Green , OH, netted over $4,000 for the OABA Educational Trust Fund. The Fund is used to provide financial assistance for Ohio students pursuing college/university curriculums, which will lead to careers in agribusiness. Nearly 100 people, mostly OABA members, had a great day of bowling, pizza and a general good time all in the "dead of winter." A special thanks to those who planned, participated and/or financially sponsored this so very worthwhile event.

Winners of the day were:
