Bowling for Kids Sake in Ingersoll and Tillsonburg

Sunday, 2 April 2017 08:19

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ingersoll, Tillsonburg and Area will be hosting two Bowl for Kids Sake fundraisers; one in Tillsonburg on April 28th and 29th and one in Ingersoll on May 4th, 5th and 6th.

INGERSOLL/TILLSONBURG - Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ingersoll, Tillsonburg and Area are gearing up for another Bowl for Kids Sake.

They have two events coming up soon in Tillsonburg on April 28th and 29th and Ingersoll on May 4th, 5th and 6th. Resource Development Coordinator Heather Brekelmans tells Heart FM you still plenty of time to sign up a team of 4-7 people and help support a great cause.

"We typically do an early bird registration, so if you register before the end of the month, you get in for that draw but otherwise we accept teams right up until two weeks before the event, that means you can register right up until just after Easter. Teams are anywhere from 4-6 people but that doesn't mean if you have more than 6 you can't come, we will just start blocking off multiple lanes. It's really nice to see when we have churches or offices bring out multiple lanes worth and it is just one big team having fun."

Brekelmans says they are going with a Canada theme this year.

"This year our theme is Canada's 150th anniversary celebrating a 150 years. So we are enjoying see a bit of the red and white come out everywhere which will get more popular as the year goes along. We are also expecting to see a few hockey teams, lumberjacks and Mounties and that kind of fun stuff to celebrate our nation and the spirit of fun, which is what we are here for."

Pledges are $50 per person and bowlers will get to enjoy an hour and half of bowling, prizes and food and drinks from Tim Horton's. You can find more information about how to sign up a team online here.
