press release: Strikes, spares, and turkeys! With the Lupus Foundation of America, Wisconsin Chapter, families and friends are gathering to Strike Out Lupus!   Ten Pin Alley is “the” place to be for 9 Pin tap bowling and to help us put lupus in the gutter!  The fun begins at 1 pm and runs through 3 pm.

“Over 28,000 people in Wisconsin are currently living with lupus. This disease has such a devastating and potentially life-threatening impact.  These 28,000 people are our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, children and friends. This fundraiser is all about lupus survivors and raising funds for research, awareness and educational resources,” says Dawn Semanko, President & CEO of the Lupus Foundation of America, Wisconsin Chapter.

Online pre-registration is currently underway and continues through February 28, 2020 (or until all spots are full) on the LFA-WI Chapter website: www.lupuswi.org  or call our office at (414) 443-6400.  Adult registration is $25 and children 12 and under is $15.  This includes 3 games of bowling, shoe rental and a pizza & soda buffet.  Put on your purple wardrobe and participate in our Proud to Wear Purple contest!  This event would not be complete without our famous Bucket raffles, Bowling Ball raffle, and 50/50 raffle!  

We are looking for local businesses to be event, lane, and food sponsors. Seize this opportunity to promote your business and show your support for members of your community affected by lupus. In-kind donations for our bucket raffle are welcome as well.

While lupus is a serious and sometimes fatal disease, Strike Out Lupus will be a day dedicated to raising the necessary funds to find better treatments and ultimately a cure for lupus.
