The OREGON BOWLING WRITERS is an organization made up of members who are interested in supporting bowling by publicizing the sport either through the written word, radio or television. The organization encourages members to spread the word via newsletters (such as the Oregon Head Pin), newspaper articles, TV promotions, etc.

One way of supporting these efforts is through our Writing, Photography and Scrap Book contests which are open to all members of the club. Winners are announced at our Annual Meeting. Click on the “CONTESTS” link for more information.

Another of our objectives is to support the Oregon State USBC Mabel Marrs Star of the Future and Ray Wise Memorial Scholarships. Funds are derived from various fundraising efforts, including our “Candy Sale” held during the OSUSBC Jamboree in August.

The OBW Annual Meeting and Banquet is held in conjunction with the annual meeting of the OSUSBC.  Reservation information will be posted on this website as soon as it is available.

Anyone wishing to help support our efforts by joining the OBW may do so by filling out a “MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION” and submitting it along with the appropriate dues to our secretary, Robby Schmid,  (phone: 541-747-7372  Email: robbyschmid@msn.com). Any questions may be directed to Robby or to our President, Fran Bristow.
