Sports Participation

• Bicycling - Decide whether the trip will be a road bicycling or mountain bicycling trip and take it from there.
• Bowling (Candlepin) - Candlepin is good for the smaller kids because the ball is smaller and lighter. Colonial Bowling Center, in Worcester, is the closest location, and Thunderbird Bowl, in Auburn, MA, is also nearby.
• Bowling (10 Pin) - 10 Pin is for kids big enough to pick up the larger bowling ball. Closest to Worcester are AMF Auburn Lanes in Auburn, MA and AMF Town & Country Lanes in Shrewsbury, MA.
• Cross Country Skiing - Windblown offers cross country skiing and snow shoeing in New Ipswich, NH (about one hour from Worcester, MA). Mass Audobon runs "Snowshoeing for Families" events at various locations.
• Frisbee Golf - Also known as "disk golf", the relatively new sport combines the basic idea of golf with a frisbee and specially designed goals. One local venue is Marshall Street, in Leicester, MA (about 15 minutes from the church). Another local venue is Treasure Valley (during summer camp) which opened its course in 2008.
• Ice Skating - Worcester Skating Rink, on Lake Avenue in Worcester, MA.
• Roller Skating - Skylite Roller Skating Center, is right in Worcester, MA. Roll-On America is located in Lancaster, MA (about 15 minutes from Worcester, MA).
