Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Eastern Shore (BBBSES) held its annual and longest-running fundraiser, Bowl For Kids’ Sake, on May 2nd, 2021 at the Ocean Lanes Bowling Center on 72nd Street in Ocean City, MD. Shore United Bank (Good Things are Happening Here ®) and Ocean City-Berlin Optimist Club (serving the Worcester County area for more than 40 years) each sponsored multiple lanes for this year’s event.

Each year, BBBSES hosts this event, and 100% of funds raised go directly towards serving local children through professionally supported mentor matching and enrichment programs at no cost to the families we serve on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.

The participants in this year’s event included Bigs and their Littles, families, sponsors, and friends. This fun filled day gives the opportunity for local community members, companies, and youth to interact and bowl together. Bowl For Kids’ Sake is a sponsor and registration funded event, and those who were able to raise $50 were granted two free games (courtesy of Ocean Lanes), pizza (courtesy of Pizza Tugos), and a ninja themed Bowl for Kids’ Sake T-shirt. The event was a total of two hours and included prizes for the highest scores, successful strikes, and for those having the most fun! The winners were able to win gift cards from Green Turtle (3 valued at $20 each), Alley Oops (valued at $40), Bonfire (4 valued at $25 each), and Dandy Dons Bike Rental (valued at $25).
