Come to Big Al’s between Sept. 13 and 21 to purchase a “fish bite” for $1. Your name will be written onto one of the “fish bites” and posted on the wall at Big Al’s. And, if you bowl a game on one of Big Al’s Powerhouse Lanes on Wednesday, Sept. 17 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Big Al’s will donate 50 cents from each game to the Firstenburg Center.
