2026 Bowl For Kids’ Sake — Hawaiian Style is HERE!

Registration Opens February 1 HERE

Get ready to roll for a cause! Yavapai Big Brothers Big Sisters is excited to launch the 2026 Bowl For Kids’ Sake fundraising campaign on February 1, inviting community members, families, friends, businesses, and local organizations to come together for fun, food, and one of the most impactful peer-to-peer fundraisers of the year.

Bowl For Kids’ Sake — Hawaiian Style! is more than just bowling — it’s a chance to support life-changing one-to-one mentoring for youth in Yavapai County while having a blast on the lanes. The campaign runs through April, with bowling celebration parties set for:

  • April 18 & 19 at Antelope Lanes in Prescott Valley
  • April 25 & 26 at Shake, Rattle & Bowl at Cliff Castle Casino in Camp Verde

Participants who register will enjoy food and drinks, two complimentary games of bowling, a free bowling shoe rental, and the satisfaction of making a measurable difference in the lives of local youth.

How it works:

  • Create or join a team — invite friends, family, coworkers, or neighbors.
  • Fundraise online — every dollar raised helps support one-to-one mentoring matches that empower youth to succeed.
  • Earn fun perks! Raise $125 or more and earn a limited-edition Bowl For Kids’ Sake T-shirt, and team captains score a special Hawaiian shirt.
  • Have fun and celebrate! Show your island spirit with leis, bright colors, and tropical flair at the bowling parties!

Bowl For Kids’ Sake is all about community, bringing people together to create opportunities for kids to thrive,” said Robin Layton, Executive Director of Yavapai Big Brothers Big Sisters. “Whether you’re a seasoned bowler or just in it for the fun, your participation helps open doors and build brighter futures for local youth.”

“I’d like to thank the Courier Cares for sponsoring this campaign again this year. We appreciate the community-minded and critical support they provide to the youth of the county. If business owners would like to sponsor the event or have a team-building experience for their staff, please reach out to us.”

Register starting February 1 at azbigs.org — form your team, start fundraising, and be part of something inspiring.
