Friends and family of Adam Garcia will be hosting a fundraiser at Oak Bowl this Saturday to benefit his young daughter, Sophia.
Garcia, a former Coupeville High School football player, was shot and killed in Oak Harbor in October, 2014.
The fundraiser, scheduled for 2:30-4:30 PM at the popular bowling alley (531 SE Midway Blvd.), is a birthday celebration for the much-loved 21-year-old.
It’s also a chance to help his beautiful five-year-old daughter. Money raised will help pay for Adam’s funeral expenses and go towards a college fund for Sophia.
Tickets are $20 and can be bought at the door or in advance at Taz’s Auto Service on Goldie Road.
Children five and under will be admitted free.
During the event, raffle drawings will be held for an assortment of baskets, as well.
