Bowl for Kids’ Sake – Construction Industry Challenge

Who will come out on top? Architects? Contractors? Engineers? Traveling trophies awarded to the highest fundraising team and the highest scoring team for winners to display for a year!

Andy B’s and BBBS of the Ozarks are taking all protocols in helping keep you safe and healthy. Teams will bowl every other lane to ensure social distancing. Masks are required and temperature checks will be done as each participant checks in. Every bowler’s area, lanes, shoes and balls are cleaned and sanitized before the next group is placed. Food and drinks are served directly to your lane and disposable paperware is used.

Bowl for Kids’ Sake is an annual fundraiser benefiting children facing adversity in our community through the programs at Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Ozarks. Teams of five raise a minimum of $325 per team and enjoy two games of bowling, pizza, soft drinks and a free Bowl for Kids’ Sake t-shirt at your special session! Volunteering has never been so fun!

Are you able to spare 2 hours to eat, drink, and bowl with your co-workers, all while supporting local children? If so, then Bowl for Kids’ Sake is for you! Come celebrate disco-style with 2 bowling games, pizza, soda, fun trivia questions for unique prizes, raffle for groovy prizes, music and more! Proceeds benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Ozarks.

Thursday, October 1st
