Bears gather in Rosemont to bowl for a good cause

Bears cornerback Charles Tillman and some of his teammates put down footballs and picked up bowling balls Thursday night in Rosemont to raise money for Tillman's foundation.

The third annual Charles Tillman Celebrity Pro BOWLer Tournament was held at Kings Lanes, Lounge & Sports in Rosemont's entertainment district. In the first two years of the bowling outing, more than $320,000 has been raised in support of the Charles Tillman Cornerstone Foundation, which provides opportunities and resources to underprivileged children and their families.

Some of the Bears bowlers Thursday night included Tim Jennings, Shea McClellin, Chris Conte, Craig Steltz and Kyle Fuller.
