St. Patrick’s Day wasn’t just about being Irish for a day and drinking green beer. The Jacksonville Women Lawyers Association also went bowling but for a good cause. The fundraising event was a benefit for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northeast Florida.
The JWLA bowling team was headed by JWLA President Patty Dodson of Terrell Hogan, President-Elect Susan Haag of the Attorney General’s Office and Vice-President of Information Technology Lindsay Tygart of Murphy Anderson. Team JWLA joined the fundraising efforts after accepting a friendly challenge from fellow JWLA member and BBBS Board Member Shaelyn Haag to compete against attorneys from a number of law firms and legal organizations throughout Duval County. Shaelyn, the little sister of Susan, has been a “big sister” in the BBBS program for seven years. Her “little sister” Tomeshia was on hand at the event to cheer on the attorneys and other teams who joined in the fun to bowl for a great cause.
