There are dozens of events across the country. See if there's a bowl-a-thon (or miniature golf-a-thon) near you. Register to bowl or check out the cities menu to find a Bowl-a-thon near you.
If you live in a town without a Bowl-a-thon, you can join the Virtual Bowl-a-thon. And if you're really eager to lace up those rental shoes, you can even take your game from the virtual realm to an actual bowling alley.
Will the Ova-Achievers win this year? From the Misoproselytizers and Ova Achievers, Bowl-a-thon participants come up with the most brilliant and punny teams.
The National Abortion Access Bowl-a-Thon is a nationwide series of local events that allow community members (you!) to captain your own bowling teams, participate in a kickass national event - and raise money to help women and girls pay for abortions they couldn't otherwise afford.
get ready to roll in APRIL 2016
