About This Event
“Bowling with Stu” is a fundraiser staged by Stuart Holden to benefit “Holden’s Heroes.” Participants in this event will bowl with friends and family while also mingling with Stuart and some of his teammates. Each person will receive a limited edition, first-ever Stuart Holden scarf. There will also be dozens of items on the silent auction including authentic, game-worn jerseys and cleats. Each person will receive unlimited bowling for three hours and the event will be catered by a local restaurant. Bring your camera and items to be signed. Stuart will be autographing throughout the event.

“Holden’s Heroes”
A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit “Holden’s Heroes.” This is Stuart’s private charity which focuses on bringing joy into the lives of sick children. Stuart was recognized by the MLS for his charitable efforts by receiving a nomination for the prestigious Jefferson Award. He is currently one of the 10 finalists in the country with the other finalists coming from other sports.

Food & Drinks
A catered dinner is included in the price of admission. The food will be provided by a local restaurant. Tea & lemonade are included. Palace Lanes will be selling adult beverages.

Silent Auction
We will have a Silent Auction for at least 25 different items including many pieces from Stuart Holden’s personal collection (jerseys, cleats, shirts, etc.). There will be auction items that fit all budgets.

“Stu’s Shoes”
Stuart Holden has set a goal to collect 500 pairs of shoes for charity at this event. Every person in attendance is encouraged to donate at least two pairs of lightly-worn shoes. These shoes will be cleaned and then donated to Star of Hope Mission to help Houston’s homeless. Each participant will receive an entry into a special drawing for each pair of shoes that they donate. The winner of the drawing will receive lunch or dinner with Stuart Holden.

VIP Reception
A maximum of eight lanes (32 people) will be sold to the VIP Reception which will be held from 1:30-2:30 p.m. Each person in the VIP Reception will receive a personalized autographed 8×10 action photo of Stuart Holden. There will also be a question-and-answer session with Stuart.

    Stu – Saw your interview with my friend Sibila Vargas this morning on Fox. Congratulations and thank you for all you do in the Houston area and for children with your charity; congrats on your nomination on the Jefferson Award. As a Jefferson Award recipient myself it would be great to connect and raise awareness of Holden’s Heros and other charities I support. I will try to make it out on Sunday. I hope that we can connect at some point.

  5. I’m editor of the Bellaire, West University, River Oaks and Memorial Examiners. Would it be possible for us to send a photographer/reporter to cover this Sunday?
