CONGRATULATIONS to all winning teams throughout our four sessions! You added friendly competition, fun, and enthusiasm to our day.

Best Team Theme Wear – Altrusa of the Seacoast, Holy Rosary Credit Union Crusaders, WIN Home Inspection Bowling with My Gnomies, and the LaRocque Dinos

Highest Scoring Team – Gutter Girls, American Legion Post 47 Sunday Funday, WIN Home Inspection Bowling with My Gnomies, and the LaRocque Dinos

Most Pledges Raised by a Team – The Dover Oddfellows, American Legion Post 47, We STILL Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Name, and Pep’s Pin Busters

A special thank you to The American Legion Post 47 group who collectively raised over $10,000 and won the GRAND PRIZE! We are absolutely blown away by your group, and all the connections you called upon to make this happen.

Thank you to all volunteers, bowlers, pledgers, sponsors Summit Land Development and Townsquare Media, and most of all Bart and his family at Bowl-O-Rama Family Fun Center for another great year.

We can’t wait until next year – we have BIG plans! 😊
