Kelly Kulick, the first woman to win a PBA Tour title, has accepted an invitation to visit the White House for a reception to be hosted by President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama. The event, on Monday, March 8 at 4 p.m. Eastern, is in celebration of Women’s History Month.
Kulick won the PBA Tournament of Champions – the PBA’s signature event and one of the Tour’s four major events – on Jan. 24 in Las Vegas.
Details of the reception activities and others invited to the event were not disclosed but more than 350 women including those serving in the U.S. Congress are expected to be in attendance.
“It’s a tremendous privilege and honor to be invited to the White House and to meet the president and first lady,” said Kulick. “I see this as not only as something that honors my accomplishment but provides recognition for the sport of bowling as well.”
