Grand Prix’s SpinsBowl to Host Bowling Marathon Fundraiser Friday
Grand Prix New York, the area’s leading indoor entertainment and team-building venue, will host an overnight fundraising bowling event this Friday, Jan. 10 at 6 p.m. to benefit the Fox Lane Sports Booster Club.
The Bowl-a-Thon will span a full 24-hour period, using all 19 lanes at SpinsBowl inside the Grand Prix facility. The Bedford Central School District’s Board of Education and the booster club will organize and coordinate teams with about 200 participants and spectators expected.
The Bowl-A-Thon, sponsored by Mount Kisco Honda and Grand Prix New York, will feature various competitions, prizes and themes, including a free Honda to anyone who bowls a perfect game. Attendees will enjoy live music and DJ entertainment and ProClinix Sports Physical Therapy & Chiropractic wellness of Pleasantville and Armonk will be on site offering massages and stretching.
Team sponsors include Bradsell Painting and Carpentry, Mt. Kisco Sports and Pro-Swing. Additional sponsorship is needed from local businesses to provide food, beverages, awards and more. Individual participants or teams can be sponsored by pledges for every hour bowled.
The booster club, which seeks to raise over $100,000 and use the proceeds to build a permanent concession stand with restrooms at Fox Lane Memorial Stadium, is calling on the community to participate either as a bowler or sponsor.
“This will be the third fundraiser we’ve held for the Fox Lane boosters in recent years,” said Grand Prix Vice President Nat Mundy. “If there’s one way that makes sense to give back, it’s by investing in our local school districts and encouraging other businesses to step up and do the same. The Bowl-A-Thon should be a lot of fun, and it’s for a great cause.”
