Whether you prefer rolling a strike or striking a chord, you could help raise project funds for Float Left Labs, a non-profit media house that provides marketing services to other non-profit organizations in the Manchester area.

Float Left Labs is holding its second annual Rock and Bowl competition on Friday, August 19th at 7 p.m. at Spare Time in Manchester. Teams of up to six people can sign up to either bowl and/or compete in the music video game Rock Band.

“We wanted to create an original, entertaining fundraiser for Float Left Labs, but we couldn’t decide which was better: hold a bowling tournament or a Rock Band competition? So we did both,” said Kelley Muir, president of Float Left Labs. “This is a chance for people in the community help us raise funds for our current community projects while networking and having fun. Winning teams will receive a trophy and, of course, bragging rights. There will also be raffles with donations from local businesses.”

Current projects include Open Chalk, an open source digital whiteboard system currently in it’s second phase of development. Float Left Labs employs college students, and helps them pay for their education. In turn, these students gain valuable real-world experience and a well-stocked portfolio.
