The 28th annual Bowl For Kids' Sake
is in the books! Our appreciation goes out to all of our corporate partners, the hundreds
of bowlers who participated, our volunteers who helped make it happen, and the staff at Bowl-O-Rama for yet another exciting
event!
Sponsored once again
by our friends at GMI First, the 28th BFKS took place April
10th and April 11th at Bowl-O-Rama in Exeter.

About 500 bowlers were on-hand for BFKS 2010! Those bowlers made up
nearly 100 teams helped raise about $61,000 toward our 2010 goal of $70,000. All money raised at BFKS stays
right here in Berks County to help fund our four (4) mentoring programs.
Besides those many bowlers and our
prime sponsor (GMI First, Inc.), a number of businesses joined the ranks to help raise funds
for Big Brothers Big Sisters. A regular partner to Big Brothers Big Sisters, Giorgio Foods bowled
a strike as one of our T-Shirt Sponsors...joined once again by Aon Risk Services.
Other Corporate Sponsors in 2010 included: East Penn Manufacturing/Deka, National Penn Bank, ParenteBeard, GMEA
(Governor Mifflin Education Assocation), Harleysville National Bank, RM Palmer, and VIST Financial. Several other
Corporate partners are expected to weigh in yet.
Businesses and individuals also helped by sponsoring a Littles
Team...and many other companies & individuals banded together to help make BFKS 2009 a success! Please see the list
below (our appreciation also to those who contributed anonymously).
