Jo Brooke's dedication and contributions are immeasurable for the KWBA and its membership. She has been a visionary and leader taking the KWBA into unknown territory in a positive manner. She worked on high impact committees and many trailblazing projects with great success.

Her statistics tell it all. Jo's championship titles illustrate the high caliber bowler she is, and the years of dedication and involvement demonstrate her loyalty and love for the sport of bowling and to the Kokomo Women's Bowling Association. On February 22, 1997, the KWBA honored her as Life Member. Now she joins the ranks of the KWBA Hall of Fame members and her Hall of Fame mother, Janet Ocker, with the distinction of being the first mother and daughter members.
