Parents looking for an affordable summer activity for their children will appreciate the Kids Bowl Free program being sponsored by bowling centers, schools and community organizations. The program allows children to bowl free at participating bowling centers throughout the United States and Canada.
Bowling Centers and Leagues
The participating bowling centers vary by state and include a nationally recognized chain of bowling centers, as well as local and privately owned bowling centers. Traditional ten-pin bowling and duckpin bowling are offered. Many bowling centers also have video games, food and music. The bowling centers may offer discount days, to the summer program participants, during other times of the year, especially on holidays.
Some participating bowling centers offer affordable leagues for children who want to pursue bowling as a sport. Leagues are available for ten-pin and duckpin bowling.
