Strike, spare, or gutter - it doesn't matter as long as it's for charity. Local history buffs and bowling fanatics are set to collide at the Scott County Historical Society's upcoming Bowling Fundraiser. The community is invited to lace up their bowling shoes at Shakopee Bowl on Friday, August 16 from 6 to 8 PM, according to an announcement by the Scott County Historical Society. A little friendly competition is all in support of preserving the rich tapestry of local history.

Here's the deal: for $120, teams of up to six can bowl for an hour, with all ages welcome. Not just a night of strikes and spares, the evening will also feature a raffle, adding an extra element of suspense to the game. Accustomed to chronicling the past, the Historical Society hopes to make this event part of future nostalgia for participants. Seeking to get involved beyond the lanes? Registering a team is only the beginning, as there are opportunities to become a lane sponsor or to donate items for the raffle.

Interested parties looking to play a part in this quirky confluence of local history and leisure sport can contact Lindsay at 952-445-0378, or scoot over an email to [email protected], as detailed on the Scott County Historical Society's official notification. It's a perfect opportunity to spread the word to anyone with a passion for history, a love for bowling, or simply a desire to support a good cause on an otherwise ordinary Friday night.

All proceeds from the Bowling Fundraiser go directly to support the Scott County Historical Society's mission. Ensuring that the stories of Scott County continue to be shared and remembered, the society plays a pivotal role in maintaining the cultural heritage of the area. Bowlers and history enthusiasts are thus united in a common goal, pinning down memories while securing a legacy for future generations to explore. Don't miss this chance to have fun and contribute to an effort that captures the essence of community spirit.
