4TH Annual Amputee Bowler Bash -- Benefitting SO EVERY BODY CAN MOVE

The 4th Annual Amputee Bowler Bash is back and better than ever! Join us on Saturday, October 5, 2024 at 2750 Austell Road Southwest, Marietta, GA 30008 for a day filled with fun, bowling, and camaraderie. This incredible event aims to support and raise awareness for SO EVERY BODY CAN MOVE (GEORGIA), a national movement to push for insurance equity for activity-specific devices (did you know that orthotic and prosthetic devices for showering, running, and swimming aren't covered under insurance??).

Whether you're a seasoned bowler or just looking for a good time, this event is for everyone! Lace up your bowling shoes and get ready to strike down pins while making a positive impact. Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity to come together as a community and celebrate the strength and resilience of amputees and to help change Georgia Law to make insurance coverage include Prosthetic and Orthotic devices for more activities!

Mark your calendars and join us at the 4th Annual Amputee Bowler Bash!

Have fun, but play your best! Not a Pro? No worries! To help "even the field," we'll be scoring by "9 pin no-tap" rules -- This means knocking down 9 pins on your first bowl COUNTS AS A STRIKE!

SO EVERY BODY CAN MOVE was created to promote insurance equity and to push legislation requiring private insurance companies to cover activity-specific orthotic and prosthetic devices, e.g., for showering, running, swimming.
