MT. VERNON — Special Olympics Illinois can use your help. A large contingent that usually provides volunteers for an annual bowling tournament is unable to staff this year’s event.

Special Olympics Area Bowling will be at Nu Bowl Lanes in Mt. Vernon on Tuesday, Sept. 19. A minimum of 15 volunteers are needed to adequately staff the event. Shifts are from 9:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. and 11:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.

If you can help, you’re encouraged to contact Rhonda Knight at (618) 383-4400 or email rknight@soill.org.
