DESTIN, Fla. (WKRG) — A fundraiser to revive the Destin Main Street Community Garden brought more than 100 bowlers to Hurricane Lanes in Destin Friday morning.
The Destin Chamber of Commerce hosted the Feb. 3 Valentines Day themed event called ‘You’re Right Up our Alley.’
Hurricane Lanes staff said they had 106 bowlers with tickets at $30 a person. A silent auction and a ‘Pie the Mayor of Destin’ also created extra funds.

The proceeds will go towards the Destin Forward program to revive the garden alongside club kids from the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Emerald Coast.
