Fun-loving Tommy Donato relishes his role as family comedian, but his bowling resume and contributions to the sport are no joke.
These days, besides keeping his family and friends entertained, Donato is known more for helping run several area tournaments, including the recent Scratch Doubles at Kingpin’s Alley Family Fun Center in South Glens Falls, the upcoming Over/Under Doubles tournament at Towne Bowling Academy, and the 18th annual Donato Scratch Singles, generally regarded as the Capital Region’s most lucrative and prestigious event with a top prize of $3,200.
