Peterborough Bowlerama

March 26, 2010, Peterborough Bowlerama was the site of Central East District Office’s First annual ‘Glo-Bowl’ tournament. Anyone rolling in would have heard much laughter and cheering as 95 bowlers, ranging from 5 to 80 years young raised $2300.00 for the Power of One Campaign while challenging ‘aces’ and ‘head-pin splits’. Eddie Voutier became the reigning High Score champion, and looks forward to defending his title next year.

UPDATE on Growing it for Global

Braydon Paige's Power of One Beard Challenge.  Braydon raised 540.00.  Congratulations!

Growing for Global

My name is Braydon Paige and I am the PM who apparently is looking like Farley Mowat. I call it...."Growing for Global". A couple of my staff members said you should grow a beard and not shave it until the deadline of The Power of One. I must say it has been treacherous so far and my wife and kids aren't to happy...lol with the whole beard thing. I am committed to keeping the beard and not shaving it until Mar 22/10. At that time I will allow the highest bidder to shave it off.

Update: 87 miles so far, This has been a great encouragement to me to shed some extra pounds, and to share with people about the work of CH Global. The people at the gym have been very gracious and have posted my sign and the members have been very encouraging as well, My family, friends and co-workers have been supportive and generous throughout.... I will meet my goal of 100 miles and I hope to continue... this challenge provided me the motivation I needed.
