The 2nd Annual BOWL 4 RONNIE Bowling Party, benefiting the Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund (www.diocancerfund.org), will take place tomorrow, November 4, 2016 at the Pinz Bowling Center in Studio City, California! The event, hosted by VH-1's Eddie Trunk, will include a celebrity bowling tournament, a raffle and a special live auction.
The event kicks off at 6:30PM with open bowling and a VIP pre-party for lane sponsors, celebrities and their guests. BOWL 4 RONNIE participants can anticipate an evening of fun, food, and, of course, bowling with rockers and celebrities competing for trophies in the name of raising funds and awareness for the Dio Cancer Fund.
100% of the net proceeds from the BOWL 4 RONNIE will go to the Dio Cancer Fund (www.diocancerfund.org). At the event, a check for $25,000 will be presented to further the research of Dr. David Wong, Director of the Dental Research Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles, who is developing a non-invasive saliva test for early cancer detection. The Dio Cancer Fund already presented Dr. Wong with $25,000 at their annual Ride for Ronnie Motorcycle event in May of this year. Dr. Wong believes this simple test will become available for medical use within the next three years. Information about his research is available here: http://hspp.ucla.edu/wonglab/
