It was a home run as SAY: The Stuttering Association for the Young opened its 5th season in Houston with the Houston Astros George Springer All-Star Bowling Benefit Kick Off Party on Monday, June 10, 2019. Co-chair Lara Bell welcomed more than 40 supporters to the hot new restaurant, yet to open – Ouzo Bay in the River Oaks District. Guests wined and dined to celebrate the upcoming main attraction – the 5th Annual George Springer All-Star Bowling Benefit, which will be held on Thursday, June 27, 2019 from 7 to 10 p.m. at Bowlmor Houston.

Right off the bat, guests enjoyed delicious cuisine, cocktails and fine red and white wine while getting a sneak peek of Ouzo Bay and Loch Bar before the two new concepts open their doors to the public.

Bell stepped up to the plate and expressed why Camp SAY is close to her heart and how it has helped so many young and brave people who stutter. Bell encouraged the crowd of fans to load up the bases and join Co-Chair Melissa DeAyala, Junior Chair Matthew DeAyala and Honorary Co-chair Dr. Carolyn Farb, h.c. for a memorable evening of bowling with Springer, fellow Astros and other professional athletes and local celebrities. David Hall with Atlas Restaurant Group scored a run with the team as he introduced guests to two unique dining experiences and invited them back for another hit.

George Springer, a Houston Astros Outfielder, 2017 World Series Champion and MVP, is a person who stutters and is the national spokesperson for Camp SAY, a life-changing and empowering summer camp for young people who stutter. The annual benefit supports the George Springer Kids Fund. All of the proceeds from the George Springer All-Star Bowling Benefit will help send children from all socio-economic backgrounds to the George Springer MVP Camp SAY day camp in Houston and Camp SAY, a life-changing summer camp for kids and teens who stutter.

The event will take full swing with a cocktail reception followed by bowling fun with fellow Astros and celebrity lane captains, with an open bar and dinner. The Bowling Benefit will also feature sports-themed items, experiences, and memorabilia in a silent auction.
