Bowl for Kids’ Sake: Cornhole Edition


You’ve been waiting.

With all that’s going on in the world, your most pressing concern today is, “What’s happening with Bowl for Kids’ Sake next year?” And we get it. We think about Bowl for Kids’ Sake everyday- the comradery, the Wacky Awards. The feeling of rented shoes and knowing your fundraising efforts are keeping kids connected. Nothing compares!

Fall is when we announce the dates for our annual Bowl for Kids’ Sake fundraising events, and this year is no different.

Bowl for Kids’ Sake, next year though, will be a little different. In response to COVID-19, we are leaving the gutter balls behind, and embracing change as the only constant.

Big Brothers Big Sisters is proud to announce Bowl for Kids’ Sake: Cornhole Edition in July-September, 2021.

Teams of 4 will face off on the cornhole pitch, outdoors and socially distant as needed. The sport is changing, but the spirit and mission of the event remains the same: you’ll still have fun celebrating the money you raised to support one-to-one mentoring in Southwest Michigan.

If you’re ready to sign up, thank you for your patience- we’ll launch the fundraising site early next year.
