Bowl for Kids' Sake

Do you want make a positive difference in the lives of children?

Do you want to have fun while supporting the community?

Do you want a chance to build your business or organization's team spirit?

Then BOWL FOR KIDS' SAKE!

We have officially begun the 20th annual Bowl for Kids' Sake campaign, presented by Edward Jones. As you know, BOWL FOR KIDS' SAKE is an annual campaign benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Central Indiana. Bowling teams are formed who then seek out friends, family, community members, and so on to donate to the campaign. The effort culminates in a bowling party filled with bowling (of course!), music, photos, games, and door prizes at Suburban Lanes!

This year's theme is "Teaming Up for another 20 Years!" Come dressed as your favorite team related to athletics, cartoons, your place of
employment, etc. Use your imagination – prizes will be awarded for
best dressed!

BOWL FOR KIDS' SAKE is a great way to build relationships within your business or organization while creating support for a local cause.
Last year 168 teams participated in the bowl, and we are hoping for 200 in 2008.

SAVE THE DATE: We have a "Pick Up Party" scheduled for January 9,
5:30-7:30pm at The Hilton Garden Inn. More information will follow!
The dates of the bowling events are Feb. 23, 24, and March 1.

We have a goal of $200,000. Help us meet this goal! Visit
www.communitybowl.kintera.org to register your team today!

A Bowl for Kids' Sake committee member might be following up with you, but if you need more information, please call me at 334-2828 or email
me at ljourdan@bigsindiana.org. We would love to attend a meeting to
tell your group about the BOWL!

Challenges have been made!

BKD currently leads the way with a $1,000 team fundraising goal, and are well on their way to meeting it!

14 Groups have already signed up to be a part of the action!

Baxter Pharmaceutical promises to have a big showing this year with 5 teams raising funds! But AuthorHouse and South Central Kiwanis are teaming up to have 5 teams as well! Will Sunrise Greetings be able to beat them out with their 6 teams?? Or will BioConvergence take the
prize with 4 teams? Owen County State Bank is also a part of the action again this year! Boys and Girls Club AND Girls Inc. have issued challenges to the Hoosier Hills Food Bank!! Stay tuned…
