ROSEMARY BEAUDIKOFER - #112

Rosemary was fairly new to the bowling world when the San Jose 500 Club was formed in 1970. She remembers bowling at Alma and McKee (Ann Darling). She has bowled at 4th Street since about 1971. Rosemary has bowled Nationals, State (received 25 year plaque), City, and is a regular participant in 500 Club Nationals and Invitationals, as well as our San Jose 500 Club monthly sweepers. She loves bowling, and sometimes makes it pay by "placing" in different tournaments. One significant achievement she recalls is placing in San Jose City All Events.

Thanks Rosemary for being one of those with foresight enough to help start the Club and you stuck with it. Please continue your efforts to make San Jose 500 Club a successful venture.
