LAKE FOREST, Ill., May 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Kids can hit the lanes for free games this summer at all 93 Brunswick Zone and Brunswick Zone XL centers.

Every day, starting June 1, students age 18 and younger can bowl one free game whenever lanes are available. Shoe rental is not included. To claim their games, students just need a Student Ball Pass, available free at any Brunswick center. Passes can also be obtained by joining the Brunswick Bonus Zone at www.bowlbrunswick.com/ballpass. There is no charge for joining.

"We wanted to recognize and reward the efforts students put in during the school year," said Jim Fox, president - Brunswick Bowling Retail. "Summer is a time to have fun. Not only is bowling fun, it's also a great activity for students to do with their family and friends regardless of the weather."

Many students are already prepared to bowl as almost 3 million passes have been distributed this spring through local schools that teamed up with Brunswick to help hand passes out.

The free game a day summer promotion is just one way Brunswick recognizes students. Through its Making the Grade program, Brunswick also offers students a free game for every "A" on their current report cards. And, those with perfect attendance can receive a free Family Funtastic Value Package, including two hours of free bowling for up to six people, shoe rental and a pitcher of pop. Finally, each spring, Brunswick offers more than $45,000 in college scholarships to winners of its All-Star Varsity Bowling Tournaments. Information about all of these initiatives is available at www.bowlbrunswick.com.
