Tallahassee bowler shares love of the game Nick Gandy For many, bowling is a sport for life. Something started in the early years. Like a youngster attending a birthday party and thinking, “I like this game.” That was not the case for Dominic DeMartino, who didn’t started bowling until after he moved to Tallahassee in 2001. He joined a bowling league, “about nine years ago,” and soon became more than a guy just rolling a ball down the lane and knocking down pins. He soon learned about a Special Olympics Bowl- ing program and signed on as a coach. He was familiar with the Special Olympics since its early days and was part of one of the original Law Enforce- ment Torch Runs, a fundraiser to create awareness of the Special Olympics. The early Torch Runs crossed the country from Maine to California and passed through his hometown of North Haven, Connecticut. At that time he was a member of the local fire department and participated. His current connection finds DeMar- tino spending Sundays from June through August instructing Special Olympics bowlers at Capital Lanes. The program drew 60 athletes, from Leon and Wakulla County, ranging in age from teenagers to adults over the age of 70, with four other coaches besides De- Martino. “They come and go over the three months,” he said. “We usually have about 20 or more every Sunday, all de- Dominic DeMartino has been spending Sundays from June through August instructing Special Olympics bowlers at Capital velopmentally handicapped.” Lanes.

Quilters are busy as bees for children’s program Rosetta Land Quilters across the nation share their fabric stories and finely sewn works of art with a program called “Sleep in Heavenly Peace.” Quilts are pieced to fit a twin-sized bed and will ultimately warm a child sleeping on a hand-crafted bed, given to them by Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP). At the Tallahassee Senior Center, Quilting Bees gather each Monday from 9 a.m.–1 p.m. They quilt, share time, and enjoy the comradery. Usually, 10-12 la- dies of various ages and skill levels cut, assemble, sew, back and edge quilts for kids and others. Fabrics feature pastel flowers, brightly colored shapes, Dutch girls, teddy bears, and other patterns for little ones to snuggle under. Quilters try to capture a design that will bring com- fort and joy to a child. From the initial selection of squares, experience and decisions vary among quilters. The time involved in construc- tion of a final product can be from hours to weeks. Machine and hand quilting produce magnificently crafted blankets. Pam Miller likes bright colors in her quilts. She comes to the TSC group from Georgia. This sewing dynamo complet- ed and donated four twin quilts, two for boys and two for girls. Pam’s an avid seamstress and when asked how long she’s sewn, she laughs and says, “Oh, I’ve sewn forever!” She never seems to slow down with her quilting, completing gifts and donations of all sizes.
