77th ANNUAL STATE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
                 BOWLING TOURNAMENT
Worthy Grand Knights, Team Captains, and Brother Knights:

This year’s 77th Annual Knights of Columbus Men’s Bowling Tournament will be held at
Royal Crest Lanes in Lawrence, KS. The dates of the tournament are, February 20-21,
February 27-28 and March 6-7, 2021.

An Invitation to participate should be extended to all Brother Knights in your Council. The
tournament is open to League and Non-League Bowlers. A current membership card will
be required when checking in.

This year’s tournament will not have any divisions. LEAGUE BOWLERS: It is very
important that league bowlers obtain the signature from their league secretary verifying
averages and sanction numbers. The TEAM CAPTAIN will be responsible for filling out
the entry form, including sanction numbers, averages, and attaching the league secretary
form. If a non-league bowler is on your team, leave his average blank, they will be given
the 135 average. Also indicate the first and second choice for dates and times to bowl.
Bring a substitute if a bowler that signed up cannot attend. (This will reduce the number of
phone calls in regard to scheduling).

Due to the Covid-19 circumstances.... PLEASE bring masks in case of need due to local
government requests. Individual team members will NOT be reimbursed if they cannot
make it to the tournament if they are in quarantine. However, if the tournament is cancelled
and you have not bowled, you WILL be reimbursed your entry fee.

Attached is the listing of hotels that have been asked to host our bowlers. It is
recommended to call the hotel of your choice. Make sure you ask for the SPECIAL RATE
for the K of C Bowlers.
