Celebrating Bowl For Kids' Sake since 1984!

Get ready to roll for a great cause! Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Black Hills is thrilled to announce our 41st Annual Bowl for Kids' Sake happening in April and May 2025 at Robbinsdale Entertainment Center in Rapid City.

This signature fundraising event brings together people and businesses from across the Black Hills to support our mentoring programs and defend the potential of local youth. It's a fun and impactful way to make a difference.

Whether you're a seasoned bowler or just looking for a good time with friends or co-workers, there’s a lane for everyone!

Why Your Support Matters:
By participating in Bowl For Kids' Sake, you’re helping to create positive, lasting change in the lives of young people across the Black Hills. Your support enables us to match youth with caring adult mentors who provide guidance, encouragement, and a sense of belonging—helping them build the confidence and skills they need to succeed in life.

Ready to Bowl for a Better Future?
Thank you for being a champion for our young people. Together, we can defend their potential and help them reach for the stars. Get your team together and join us for an evening of fun that makes a difference! Here's how it works:

  • One participant will serve as the "team captain" to register your team for the night and theme of your choosing.
  • Pay the $500 registration fee online, check, or cash. Individual payments to the team captain by bowlers can be made on a personal basis. 
  • Participants form teams of 4-5 bowlers, wearing your finest themed attire, gather for a bowling competition to celebrate mentoring and the donation efforts of all involved!
