Come on out and Bowl for Bowels.


I have Crohn's and my buddy, Mo, here has Colitis. Help us find a cure for our diseases.


If you need tickets to the Bowl for Bowels fundraiser on June 26th. You've come to the right place.

We will be bowling for bowels on June 26th at 3D Bowl in Island Lake, IL from 4-7pm.

We will have unlimited bowling with shoes from 4-6. There will be food and fun from 4-7pm. We will raffle off some items and have some silent auctions. There will also be face painting and balloons.

I suffer from Crohn's Disease. Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are very painful diseases that attack the digestive tract. It can be embarrassing to talk about because a lot of people suffer from diarrhea and blood in their stool. In my case I throw up for hours on end. There is no cure for these diseases just ways to manage it. I am raising money to help fund research, which we hope will ultimately find a cure.

Over 80 cents of every dollar I raise will go to the cause. I am training and then will run a half marathon in California on July 17th. I am doing it to raise awareness about the diseases and I am racing it to show myself that I am bigger than this disease. I may have this disease, but I will not allow it to have me.

I am also running this race for my 8 year old friend, Mo, who has had Ulcerative Colitis for most of his life. Please help us find a cure.

Pre-sale tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for kids 12 and under.

At the door they are $20 for adults and $15 for kids 12 and under.

I will be outside the Jewel in Wauconda on June 24, 25, and 26th collecting donations, selling raffle tickets, and selling BOWLING FOR BOWELS tickets.
