The Annual Houston Lions Club Siren Bowl took place on Saturday with serious competition between the “Guns N Hoses.”
Texas County Law Enforcement took on the Texas County Fire Department/EMS/Dispatch in a softball game that lasted for a total of 10 innings.
Law Enforcement pulled off the win against the Firefighters with a final score of purchased runs, 96-93. The real score was 33-16. Law Enforcement also has the honor of displaying the Siren Bowl Trophy. Those who struck out had the honor of wearing the wings.
Over $2600 was raised for the real winners, those for whom the proceeds benefit with the Texas County Shop with a Hero Program.
Coordinators wish to thank everyone who sponsored, donated, volunteered and came out to watch the game, and those who donated items for the silent auction.
