The Manchester and Vernon Lions Clubs are thrilled to share the fundraising results from the 26th Annual Fenix Bowling Tournament, held on Saturday, April 6th, 2024: Thanks to the generosity of many, we raised an astounding $9,150 this year!

We had 128 participants bowl to support the Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation on Sat. April 6th, 2024.
This impressive amount will go directly towards providing guide dogs to the visually impaired and blind at no cost to them. Over the past 26 years, our tournament has raised over $280,000 for this wonderful cause.
A special thank you, as always, goes to John and Pat Garoppolo, who started this tournament in honor of John's beloved first Fidelco Guide Dog, Fenix, many years ago. Your legacy continues to make a huge impact!
Thank you to the sponsors and businesses that donated, and to everyone who participated and supported this fantastic event.
