JA Bowl-A-Thon: How it Works:
JA staff members plan and execute the entire event with your company coordinator
Events are held at local bowling alleys
Companies with teams of 10 or more may choose their date
Companies with less than 10 teams may bowl on a date decided by JA staff
Form teams of five bowlers and enjoy 2 1/2 hours of bowling complete with food, drinks, door prizes, and more
Each bowler is asked to pay a registration fee of $35 and raise $125 for JA programs
