"To go my husband more involved with Relay, I formed a team named: Team Wii Fight Cancer. The bowling tournament seemed like a proficient excuse to have friends over to play the Wii, eat and heighten a couple hundred $$ for ACS."

Pictured above: (Image one) The table runner was a kitchen cabinet liner that looked like bamboo with red masking tape added for foul line and cut for management arrows. The plastic bowling pins & ball are from Oriental Trading Company. (Image two) I glazed a handful of dense pound cake cubes to look like Wii remote controls, so used a frosting pen to duplicate power and abode logos.

Other things to note:
• Etch-it Cups from Celebrate Express were a big hit.

Thanks then much for the inspiration, Robin! I can already think of a agglomeration of my own Wii-fond friends who will love all these ideas!

*Annotation – I had a hard time finding a good place online to purchase Wii Remote Candy Dispensers, just there were a couple on ebay, and someone on Yahoo! Answers said they've seen them at Cost Plus, so Robin found hers at Walgreens, then perhaps they're more than of an in-store thing…simply if anyone knows of any good places online, please share!
