Bowl for a cure

The Big Show on 1270 WXYT is currently in the midst of their second annual Big Show for the Big Cure Bowlathon. In case you’re not familiar, Art Regner and Doug Karsch will be on the air for 28 hours straight (except during tonight’s Red Wings game) from Lucky Strike Lanes in Novi. They are raising money to support the Vattikuti Urology Institute at Henry Ford Health System. The money raised will be used for prostate cancer research.

It is a wonderful cause, and there are a number of ways to contribute. Of course cash contributions are always welcome. In addition there are auctions running throughout the 28 hours. Finally, you can actually go bowl. For $12.70 you receive a T-shirt and an hour of bowling.

I bring up this last part because I’ll be heading out early tomorrow morning to bowl. I’ll be there at 5:00am tomorrow morning. I did it last year also, and while the hour is ridiculous, it was a lot of fun. It’s not everyday you get to bowl before the sun comes up, and do it for charity at the same time. I hope to see you there!
