Coach Alison and John Russo are leaving Special Friends Bowling to move to the Orlando area to be closer to the rest of the family.  Among her many contributions to us Alison was instrumental in helping pick out our first team uniforms in 1996 and continued to help as we updated our uniforms two more times.

Alison volunteered to help organize our social events through the years.  And, I think all coaches would agree, Alison is the champion of lane assignments – a tedious and thankless job.

Alison, thank you for your many years of service with Special Friends Bowling.  Your organization and planning skills made the jobs of all other coaches much easier and the game much more enjoyable for our athletes.

John, it has been a pleasure bowling with you.  We hope you make many new friends and continue to bowl more perfect “300” games.  We hope you, and your family, enjoy your new home. And, if you’re not too busy, come visit us.
