Bowling Buddies

residents and Bowling Buddies at Strike Bethesda    In 2003 Melissa moved into the Melvin and Estelle Gelman Home. After deciding that his sister needed something to do on the weekends, Jonathan Sachs, a former student of the Charles E. Smith Jewish Day School, decided to organize a bowling league with his sister and her roommates, other residents at JFGH and other students at his school. After the first year the students and residents decided to continue the league, which they named Bowling Buddies, the next year.
