Page 12 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, March 15, 2024 Malden Overcoming Addiction host first Bowl-a-Thon Benefit Special to Th e Advocate M alden Overcoming Addiction hosted their fi rst Bowla-Thon at Town Line Luxury Lanes of Malden. MOA hopes to make this an annual event, and based on the outpouring of support and participation, it’s a pretty sure thing it will continue! Thirty lanes were jammed as bowlers of all abilities competed, some seriously and many playfully. More than 200 people were in attendance and those that didn’t bowl enthusiastically supported friends, colleagues and strangers. All were there for a great cause. Raffl es and prizes were awarded at the end of the evening. Best team name went to “Split Happens,” and best team theme went to “Lucky Ladies” dressing up and decorating their lane like it was St. Patrick’s Day, with a little bit of New Year’s Eve sprinkled in: lights, costumes, props. Awesome! Alone I can’t, together we can. Other teams had bowling shirts made up for the event, including our friends at Garrick-Santo Landscaping and South Street Diner. Best Old Ladies (BOL), who also volunteer at Bread of Life, had the best play on words! Thank you to all of the teams (33 in total) who participated! We would also like to thank all of the great local sponsors; without them the evening would not have been the success it was! Thank you!!
