A Spaghetti Feed and Silent Auction Fundraiser is scheduled from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, March 16 at the Manette Saloon and Sidebar, 2113 E. 11th St., Bremerton. The cost is $5 per plate and all proceeds will benefit Amina Kocer-Bowman’s family in helping to cover medical expenses.

Kocer-Bowman, a third-grader at Armin Jahr Elementary School, was shot when another classmate brought a gun to school that accidentally discharged while in the student’s backpack in February.

Other local sponsors for the fundraiser include the Boat Shed Restaurant and Bremerton Bottling Inc.
