About the Halloween Booo-wlathon
Sponsored by Raphael & Raphael

• You can sign up with a team of between two and six people.   
• Looking for a team?  We'll gladly match you up with a team.  Also, please note that since team sizes may be four to six bowlers, teams with fewer than four bowlers may share a lane. If this is the case we will let you know in advance, and you will have the option to combine funds for a team fundraising total.
• Each team is asked to raise an average of $100 person per team (i.e. a team of five must raise a minimum of $500 for a combined total).  Prizes will be awarded to the top three individual fundraisers and top team fundraiser.
• Wear your Halloween costume!  Prizes will be awarded for best costumes.
