F.E. Warren AFB, Wyo. --  This summer, customers at Warren Lanes bowling center will be "beary" glad they visited. 

The summer strike force promotion takes off June 1, giving patrons the chance to win prizes and cash when participating in programs at the bowling center. 

"Every year, the Air Force-wide summer bowling promotion brings people of all ages in to cool off for some healthy, indoor fun with family or friends," said Darrel Morton, Warren Lanes bowling center manger. "This summer, we're bringing back the collectible beanie bears that were such a big hit two years ago, plus many other great prizes and cash." 

The male and female bowling-attired bears, named "Bud E. Bowler" and "Iwanna B. Bowlin," are two of the prizes participants can win after completing two levels of punch cards. Summer strike force gives participants the opportunity to earn rewards by collecting punches on two levels of punch cards: strike force one (black level) and strike force two (gold level). 

For every 10 punches, patrons receive a reward for that level. Participants who have fully punched strike force one cards earn coupons for free soft drinks and bowling. Strike force two cards earn patrons the choice of a beanie bear, strike force T-shirt or Air Force bowling twist-lock key holder, while supplies last. 

Every completed card is entered for weekly prize giveaways such as a strike force bowling shirt or collectible bowling pin; Raw Hammer "toxic," "pain" or "doom" bowling balls; a bowling bag; and a desktop bowling clock. Bowlers who have completed cards are entered in a drawing for a chance to win a $500 cash grand prize or $250 second prize. 

Punches are earned for every game bowled or large fountain beverage purchased at the bowling center snack bar through July 31. No purchase is necessary to enter to win the weekly and grand prizes. For complete contest rules and entry information, visit Warren Lanes.
