Ariel’s Big Honkin’ trophy

So while Ariel was out of town, Kathleen and I attended the awards ceremony for the Long Island Junior Bowling Association, which has over 4000 young bowlers in its membership.

Turned out it was a good thing we did. Ariel won a trophy, which we accepted on her behalf, for highest scoring over the season in her category (Handicap All Events, Junior Girls). There were only ten categories, so basically she placed as one of the top young bowlers in Long Island.

Anyone who says “size doesn’t matter” hasn’t gotten a load of this trophy. It’s almost as big as Caroline. A couple of kids in the ten-and-under crowd could barely carry theirs. This should be a really nice incentive for Ariel’s future athletic endeavors. As soon as Kath’s computer is up and running, we’ll run a picture of Ariel holding the trophy on the website.
