(Houston, Texas - December 17, 2011) - The 2011 Holiday Extravaganza, which included over 100 youth from the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Houston and Trinity Garden's Church of Christ, took place Saturday, December 17th at the Lucky Strike Bowling Lanes in downtown Houston.

The youth were overcome with holiday joy as they are, bowled, danced with the Wii, and created custom designed Christmas trees and Santa faces at the arts & crafts tables.  After a brief visit with Santa Claus, Steve helped each youth select a toy or game and signed autographs.

The Steve Francis Foundation would like to say thank you to all who participated in helping brighten the holiday season for the Houston youth.  Everyone left Lucky Strike with a smile.

"The students and parents that participated in the day had a fabulous, luxurious and fun filled afternoon at Lucky Strike!  Out host and hostess (Steve Francis and his wife) were gracious with their time and attention.  They also secured a wonderful staff of people to take care of everyone's needs and provided Christmas gifts to the needy children of our community.  Thank you to the Steve Francis Foundation!" - Jevon German
