Overview

Mission

To promote and grow the sport of bowling in Oregon as well as support the national usbc as the governing body of bowling ensuring the integrity of and enhancing the future of the sport, providing programs and services and enhancing the bowling experience.

What it reported doing in 2024

Tournaments: to provide member bowlers with the opportunity to compete with other bowlers around the state as well as to qualify for national tournaments. These tournaments are self-supported as expenses for lineage, cash rewards, scholarships and other expenses are paid from entry fees.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 83% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
