A "BIG" Thank You BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERSof the Southern Adirondacks would like to extend our appreciation to everyone who helped make the Bowl For Kids' Sake 2008 an $80,000 success! This year 540 bowlers came together over two weekends to enjoy sandwiches, cake, live entertainment and karaoke. Bowl For Kids' Sake is not just about bowling. There were over 80 door prizes, amazing raffles, and a BBBS Shoppe, ensuring that there was something for everyone. Bowl For Kids' Sake is a fun community event supporting youth in our community.
