Our state association manager, Sharon Schildroth, stepped down as of July 31. Giving of herself to bowling for 50-plus years, it is time to take care of herself for a change.

We on the state board will miss her terribly, as will many others,
and we cannot begin to thank her enough for everything she has done for the sport of bowling.
For me, her friendship is invaluable. The many miles we have traveled together will always bring a smile.
However, just recently she received one more deserving accolade, that makes our hearts happy.
During a recent West Michigan Whitecap’s game 3, local women from Grand Rapids who have had an impact on women and girls in sports were honored for their service.

The first honoree was none other than our Sharon….. Such a well-deserved honor.
Here is what they had to say:
“Sharon has accomplished so much in the sport of bowling, but most importantly has led the development of a youth scholarship program that annually awards over $50,000 to make sure girls have the same opportunities to participate on all levels in bowling as the boys.”
Thank you, Sharon, for all you do!
And we totally agree!!!

Resumes for the state association manager position will be accepted until August 31st.
