Third Annual Bowling Fundraiser Benefitting the Adelphi Breast Cancer Program

The 3rd annual Bowling Benefit for the Adelphi Breast Cancer Hotline & Support Program will be held on Saturday, November 3 from 1 to 4 pm at San-Dee Lanes, 342 Hempstead Avenue in Malverne.

Jean Rettura, a breast cancer survivor and volunteer with the Adelphi NY Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline & Support Program, originated the event. Ms. Rettura, a 33-year survivor, has been a volunteer with the Adelphi program for 26 years. She says, “I became a volunteer because it was time to give back to the community and I knew that the Adelphi hotline was a terrific resource for people where they would not feel alone in dealing with breast cancer.”

The fee of $30 per person includes three hours of bowling, bowling shoes and refreshments. There will be a 50/50 raffle and a Chinese auction.

Pre-registration is required. To register online, visit http://breast-cancer.adelphi.edu ; or call 516-877-4325 (please leave your name, phone number and the number of bowlers). Payment must be received by Friday, October 29. Make your check payable to Jean Rettura and mail to her at 724 Herzel Blvd, West Babylon, NY 11704.
