It's time for our first annual bowling tournament. Come demonstrate your appreciation for the Zen of the Dude by showing up in character, showing in your favorite Big Lebowski t-shirt, or just showing up - but that 's neither here nor there. Just come and play, and there will be some Lebowski swag for the highest overall score, so bring your "A" game.

Country Lanes has food and a full service bar. I cannot vouch for the quality or prices of either since I haven't been there before, but the online reviews I found were positive. Anyway, for every gutter ball you have to chug your White Russian. (Just kidding. Some of us would end up way to drunk to drive home, or more importantly, bowl.)

The cost is $15 per person (assuming 15 people). I need firm commitments since I will have to pay in-advance and since the payment is non-refundable. Right now we get three lanes. However, we may be able to reserve more lanes if more than 15 people RSVP. So... If you intend to abide, please RSVP asap.

Due to the number of people attending, Country Lanes has asked that everyone show up 30 minutes early (7:30pm) to be fitted with shoes and get their lane assignments, since we have the lanes for exactly two hours, from 8:00pm to 10:00pm.
