👨👩👧 Parents vs. Kids Night – A fan-favorite night of laughter, cheers, and playful competition!
Last season, over 90 bowlers and their families filled the lanes with joy, laughter, and connection. Challenger Tribe Bowling isn’t just about the game — it’s about friendship, confidence, and community.
This isn’t just bowling — it’s belonging.
At Challenger Tribe, we believe every bowler deserves a chance to be part of the fun — regardless of financial circumstances. Thanks to the generosity of some incredible Challenger Tribe families, we’re excited to offer a limited number of Parent-Funded Bowling Scholarships for the 2025 season.
These scholarships are meant to help participants who would not otherwise be able to register. If cost is a barrier for your family, we encourage you to apply — no explanation needed, just honesty and heart. We’re here to support each other.
Please fill out this short, confidential form with your contact details and participant info:

If you are vendorized through VMRC (Valley Mountain Regional Center), you may be eligible for activity reimbursement through your child’s IPP. Reach out to your Service Coordinator to learn more!
Let’s continue building a community that lifts each other up — on and off the lanes. 💙
Let’s make this our biggest, brightest season yet. Whether you’re joining the league or just dropping in occasionally, we can’t wait to welcome you to the lanes!
