Trudy’s Bowl for Kids 2015
It’s not about the bowling…
It’s about the kids!
Join nearly 1,000 individuals and companies
who raise money for BBBS and are invited to
enjoy a weekend of free bowling, food,
drinks, event t-shirt, souvenir team photos,
and a chance to win door prizes.
This three-day event brings 1,000 people to
a major bowling party. Nearly 1,500 bowlers
pledge their support for helping Central
Texas area children find extraordinary adult
friends through the Big Brothers Big Sisters
program.
Last year Bowl for Kids celebrated its 31st anniversary in
Austin and raised $175,000 to impact the lives of children
in our community. 100% of funds raised are used locally
to create and nurture life-changing friendships between
at-risk youth and caring adult mentors. More than 97% of
our Little Brothers and Sisters stay in school, avoid teen
pregnancy, and improve or maintain their grades.
Thanks to last year’s sponsors:

Very Important Bowler Status
Are you a Very Important
Bowler? We think so!
What is a “VIB”?
“VIB”
status
is
special
recognition
for
rockstar
individuals, teams, or companies who raise $1,250 or
more for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Texas.
(You’ll also have an opportunity to “upgrade” at
Highland Lanes, by donating to your own team to
reach a goal of $1,250 or more.)
Why are these bowlers recognized?
By raising $1,250 they’ve sponsored a child in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program for an
entire year and single-handedly changed lives! This is a small way to say ’thank you’ for
helping so many Little Brothers and Sisters achieve success in life.
Roll like a VIB!
As a VIB, your team will enjoy:
Free drinks
Plenty of bragging rights!
