Turkey Bowling!

Turkey bowling is a fun game that we usually do at club around Thanksgiving time.  Another alternative is Pumpkin Bowling in October. For this you will need:

• 1 frozen turkey
• 1 set of bowling pins 
• space to bowl (either indoors or out)

You can either use real bowling bins (some bowling alleys may donate old ones to you) or use empty soda or juice bottles (pictured). Many Young Life areas already have a set of bowling pins, so check with your staff first. You can also do this with a roll of plastic or a tarp and grease it down with vegetable oil. Teens bowl the turkey using the handle, keeping the bird inside the package.

You can always send the turkey home as a prize or give to a girl in need.
