Madison PBA Fundraiser Benefits Triple Amputee Veteran

MADISON, NJ — Marine Corps veteran and Madison resident Cpl. Todd Love has never let anything slow him down. After losing both legs and an arm in Afghanistan in 2010, Love competed in the 10.5 mile endurance Spartan Race known as "The Beast" to honor fallen soldiers.

Now Madison NJ PBA 92 wants to honor Love, a Georgia native, through their 1st Annual Rose City Roll bowling fundraiser. A portion of proceeds will be donated to Love, so he can buy a new wheelchair.

"Todd is in need of a new wheelchair, and collectively, we hope to help Todd and his family through fundraising efforts as we continue to remain committed to giving back to the community of the Rose City," the PBA wrote on Facebook.

The May 8th event, hosted by the Stryke Madison bowling alley, is open to those 21 and above. Tickets can be purchased online through Eventbrite, or through any Madison P.B.A. member, or at STRYXE Guest Services (buying through Eventbrite ads a $4.02 service fee).

Tickets include bowling, amusement games, billiards, appetizers, and wood-fired Tabisca pizza, beer, wine, and spirit tastings donated by event sponsors, and are $55.

For more information, visit the event's Facebook page.
