Moline, IL -- Give a child a jump start on their future by bowling in the Trinity JA Bowl-A-Thon at Bowlmor, Highland Park, Milan Lanes, Miller Time and Town & Country bowling alleys on Saturday, February 20. Have a great time while raising funds to support financial literacy, work readiness and entrepreneurship programs provided by Junior Achievement to area schools.
You don't need to be a good bowler; just an enthusiastic one to participate. Get together a group of friends, co-workers or family members to form a team. Then join us for a fun-filled, exciting day of bowling and prize giveaways. The money you raise will help support local students participating in JA programs.
