Register Today!
SAFE Community Bowling Event 
Saturday, March 30, 2024, 1-2:30 pm, Hingham, MA

Join us for a fun, family-friendly, food-free, bowling afternoon. This event is open to food allergic children and their families. Have fun and make new connections! We encourage you to enjoy a snack before you arrive, or after you leave, as this is a food free event. Space is limited. Registration (per family, not per individual) is required.

 

Entry is free, but we ask that each family attending please donate an unopened, shelf-stable, food-allergy-friendly, food item that SAFE can donate to a local food pantry. Together, we can help others.

 

Shoes are included, please bring socks. This is not a drop off event, caregivers must stay. Hope to see you March 30!
