Big Brothers Big Sisters Hosts Annual Bowl for Kids’ Sake Event

(Utica, NY – Feb. 22, 2010) The 28th annual Bowl for Kids’ Sake, to benefit the local Big Brothers Big Sisters program, will be held on Sunday, March 14 at King Pin Lanes in Rome and on Sunday, March 21 at AMF Pin-O-Rama in Utica. Both venues will host games at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.

A great opportunity for Bigs and Littles to contend in friendly bowling competition, Bowl for Kids’ Sake is the signature event for the local organization to help raise funds and recruit new volunteers. Friends, family members and local businesses may sponsor participants for any amount desired. Anyone can enter, either individually or as a team, and teams are composed of five players each. Fun for all ages and experience levels, individual bowlers or smaller groups will be placed with other bowlers to form squads of five for the bowling games.

Registrants who raise at least $35 in pledges will receive two bowling games, shoe rentals, and a Bowl for Kids’ Sake t-shirt. There are also additional exciting incentive levels plus many other prizes.
