SUMMARY:Bowl-A-Thon
DESCRIPTION:After a 6-year hiatus\, the Bowl-A-Thon is back! From 2005 to 2019\, the Bowl-A-Thon gathered friends\, families\, and allies from far and wide to help raise funds to send kids to camp. And we are so excited to bring this wonderful family event back to the community. Our goal is to bring children\, youth\, friends\, and family together for a day of FUNdraising and bowling adventures. All funds raised will help subsidize camp fees for the 181 campers who are attending camp this summer! This year\, Ten Oaks aims to raise $40\,000! \n\n\n\nThe 2025 Bowl-A-Thon will take place on June 1\, 2025 from 10:30 AM to 1 PM. We welcome participants of all ages\, skill levels\, and abilities to join us for bowling\, arcade games and prizes! On the day of the Bowl-A-Thon\, teams enjoy an afternoon of incredible fun: bowl\, play arcade games\, and participate in team spirit challenges to win prizes!

She was so excited by the experience that she became a facilitator as soon as she could. She has conducted over 50 woekshops for WCC \n\n\n\nIn addition\, she volunteers for several other organizations. She has provided peer support facilitation for MDO\, PSO (Psychiatric Survivors of Ottawa)\, OCO (Ontario Caregivers’ Organization)\, and Kind Space (LGBTQ2S+ Community Centre). She is also part of the OHT-CPT (Ottawa Hospital Team – Client/Partner Table) and the OHT-MHSU sub-committee (OHT – Mental Health and Substance Use) as well as the Patient Navigation working group. Recently she was a member of the Advisory Committee for the OCO’s storytelling project “Sharing for Change”. She also participated in the “Elder Queer” history workshops hosted by the NAC. \n\n\n\nKathleen has also been involved with WCC’s Write On! program and two of her short stories were published in the 2022 Front Lines anthologies. \n\n\n\nRoman (Ro) Dineen (they/them) \n\n\n\nOttawa\, Ontario \n\n\n\nRoman Dineen (they/them) is a trans non-binary and gender fluid person living in Ottawa.
