The Big Brothers Big Sisters of North Wellington’s annual Bowl for Kids campaign kicks off on Feb. 12 at the Mount Forest Bowling Centre, with the Minto-Mapleton community bowling at 11am.
Mount Forest and community bowls on Feb. 26 and Arthur/Alma community on March 5.
“Our Bowl for Kids campaign is a success each year because of people like you. Some of you bowl, others sponsor a bowler, while others may choose to give a corporate donation or take advantage of our lane sponsorship opportunity,” organizers state.
“Whether you’re a longtime supporter or a brand new team, we are delighted to have you join us.”
The theme this year is “Happy 150th Birthday Canada”, and organizers are encouraging participants to come out dressed in red and white Canadian attire.
“Our goal is to raise $55,000 this year and we know, with your support, we can do it. Each year we are overwhelmed by our community’s generosity,” organizers stated in a press release.
“Big Brothers and Sisters give of their time year-round to help improve the life for children in the community who need our support.”
