F.A.C.E Triples Bocce Bash
April 25-27, 2025
Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death for children on the Autism Spectrum. The FACE Invitational Bocce Bash strives to build on the over $55,000 in adaptive swim and water safety grants we have provided to children and families with autism through our partnership with the YMCA of Greater Kansas City. To date, we have provided over 1,700 adaptive swim lessons impacting over 70 families in the Greater Kansas City area. We are proud to partner with the Bocce Broadcast Network as our streaming partner for our inaugural tournament.
