INFORMING THE INVESTORS OF THE MOORE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE SINCE 1946
BUSINESS
SUPER BOWL IV
Bowling Our Way Toward a Good Cause
On February 6, Moore AMF Lanes
was jam-packed! We had all 40
lanes filled and three additional
sponsors for this event. We had
15 restaurants and caterers
participating in Taste of Moore and
providing a delicious tasting of a
variety of foods. In addition, we had
over 60 items for our silent auction.
It was a fun-filled evening of
friends and colleagues bowling
their way toward a great cause.
The proceeds from this event will
benefit the Chamber’s Excellence
in Education (Teacher of the Year/
Patron of the Year Awards Program)
and the Food 4 Kids Moore Public
Schools Program. This year we
raised $12,352.
It is very rewarding to know we
are able to honor our teachers and
patrons for all of the hours and
work they provide to make our
school district the best it can be.
In addition, we are able to help
sustain our Food 4 Kids Program,
which provides approximately
450 elementary children with
kid-friendly food over the weekend. One counselor stated, “Your
contributions make it possible for
our children in need to receive
some of the added nutrition they
need to be successful. We thank
you very much.”
The Education Services
Committee would like to thank
everyone who participated and
helped make this a very successful
event. We hope to see you next year
for the Super Bowl V Bowling Party
on Friday, February 5, 2010.
Thanks to the 15 restaurants
and caterers who helped
support Chamber’s Excellence
in Education (Teacher of the
Year/Patron of the Year Awards
Program) and the Food 4
Kids Moore Public Schools
Program. (See photos page 2)
