All about how the bowl-a-thon is coming together!! I am so interested in this idea!! How will it run? What is planned? How did u go about setting it up? Only a few more weeks!!
Well, it's a bit hectic, but it should be a great time! So far it looks like we will have about 20 or so bowlers and tons of cheerleaders!We have custom t-shirts with the awareness ribbon for all the bowlers. We will be having pizza and cake (I think I am going to make a CDH Awareness Ribbon Cake). I plan on having a raffle and prizes for the bowlers.
The idea is that each bowler will bowl 2 games, and have friends/family sponsor them on a per pin basis (or a single donation).
It was really easy to set up. I contacted the bowling alley to set up a date and time, and sent out invitations and sponsor sheets. The t-shirts I had custom made at vistaprint.com ($4.50 a shirt!!!), and am asking local business for gift card/item donations for the raffle and prizes.
Here are the invitations I sent out:

LOL I can not wait to hear how it goes! It is such an awesome idea! Shane and Jess are wanting to "steal" this idea from you. We have several bowling alleys close by and a few friends that travel all over to bowl.
Thats awesome! It's such an easy and fun fundraiser! I can't wait!
