The Luck of the Irish was with the three teams competing in the 2010 Winter Wii Bowling Tournament at Still Hopes!
This past Wednesday on St. Patrick’s Day, the final round of the tournament took place at Still Hopes. A great group of spectators were in attendance to cheer on their favorite players. The teams were: “Still on a Roll” with Ed and Junie Hickman, Richard Kennedy, and Anne Beazley, “The Rolling Pins” with Margia Peeples, Charles Culbertson, Eliza Horton, and Nevin Betts, and “The Silver Strikers” with Lottie McLain, Emma Byars, Bobby Sumwalt, and Bill Strohecker. “The Rolling Pins” had the highest total score over the four rounds, and Margia Peeples had the highest individual total score. The winning team was awarded the traveling bowling pin trophy and bragging rights until the next tournament. Everyone enjoyed the refreshments, bowling ball cookies, and green sherbet punch.

Herb Guerry, a resident of Still Hopes, talks about his experience using the Brain Fitness program.
Mr. Guerry was filmed by a BGT student partner. Still Hopes was selected as one of three BGTime Centers in the Columbia area. Developed to bridge the gap between today’s digital media and seniors, the program gives participants “opportunity and voice” so that their stories can be heard across the internet.
