Kings Bowl, Charles Tillman team up for charity fundraiser in Rosemont

Chicago Bears cornerback Charles Tillman is partnering with Rosemont’s newest entertainment venue, Kings Lanes, Lounge & Sports, for the Charles Tillman Pro BOWLer Charity Fundraiser on June 7.

The fundraiser, sponsored by Meijer, Navistar and Miller Lite, will run from 6 to 10 p.m. Proceeds benefit the Charles Tillman Cornerstone Foundation, which strives to improve the lives of critically and chronically ill children.

“I am thrilled to be hosting this event with Kings Lanes, Lounge & Sports,” Tillman said in a news release. “People are going to have fun; who wouldn’t? This is the perfect way for my teammates and friends to come together for a good cause.”

Sponsorships for the bowling teams range from $4,000 to $10,000. Teams are made up of six people and one celebrity guest. General admission tickets are available for $75 and include a sampling of Kings’ food.

Guests may bid on live and silent auction items, including autographed sports memorabilia, VIP tickets and dining packages. To register a team or purchase tickets, visit charlestillman.org.

Kings Lanes, Lounge & Sports is located in The MB Financial Park at Rosemont entertainment district, north of the Balmoral Avenue off-ramp from the northbound Tri-State Tollway.

“Bowling has always been a great social sport, and there is no better way to socialize than doing it for a great cause,” said Frank Stryjewski, CEO of Kings Bowl of America, in the news release. “We are thrilled to partner with Charles Tillman and are committed to being an actively engaged member of our community.”
