Autism Connections' 10th Annual Spares & Strikes Bowl-A-Thon
10 Years. 10 Pins. 10 Frames. One Incredible Community.
This year, Spares & Strikes is celebrating a milestone: 10 years of teams, supporters, sponsors and community members coming together in support of Autism Connections.
The 10th Annual Spares & Strikes Bowl-A-Thon will take place on Sunday, November 22, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. at The Drome by Trailway, 301 Main Street in Fredericton.
In the weeks leading up to the event, participating teams collect pledges from friends, family members, coworkers and other supporters. The money raised supports and supplements Autism Connections' work throughout the year, including programs, activities, resources, services and the day-to-day operations that make that work possible. On November 22, our teams will come together at The Drome to celebrate the campaign with an afternoon of bowling.
Last year, 12 teams took part and together raised $33,010 for Autism Connections. This year, we are looking forward to bringing the community together again for a special 10th anniversary!
