Local businesses can support the event by becoming event and lane sponsors, donating prizes for the raffle, and encouraging employees to participate as Team Captains and team members. Each bowler is encouraged to raise a minimum of $35; those who raise $100 or more are entered in raffle drawings to win prizes, and every bowler gets a t-shirt as well. Bowl for Kids’ Sake is not about being a good bowler, even if the highest score on your team just cracks the 100 mark you can still have a lot of fun supporting a worthy cause!
Costumes, clever team names, and friendly competition are also encouraged. This year’s theme is Bowling with the Stars so it’s a perfect time to break out the boas and tiara’s or dust off the old Elvis costume from Halloween’s past.
This is a fabulous event that brings the whole community together. It’s a way anyone can support Big Brothers Big Sisters vision – that all children achieve success in life. We know not everyone may be able to serve as a mentor for a child, but by participating in this event as a bowler, team captain, or sponsor, anyone can help start a child on the right path. Every dollar raised through Bowl for Kids’ Sake directly funds our mentoring programs in St. Lucie, Indian River & Okeechobee Counties and helps to maintain and sustain our mentoring relationships, increasing kids’ chances for success.
