The Twin State's Finest Meet at Dave Wolk Stadium at
Castleton University
The Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl Football Game is played between two all-star teams of graduated high school seniors from Vermont & New Hampshire. The game is preceded by a spectacular parade of Shrine Units from throughout the Northeast Region. It is one of 30 Shrine Football Games played every year across the country.
"Strong Legs Run That Weak Legs May Walk" is the motto of every Shrine Football Game and it can be seen every summer as 76 young men from New Hampshire and Vermont play their hearts out for the benefit of the children in the Shrine facilities. And, when they step off the field at game's end, they become alumni and as such never forget the children they played for.

The Real Winners are the Children in the Shrine Hospitals
The Shriner's Hospitals provide care for children up to the age of 18 with special health care needs, and conduct research to discover new knowledge that improves the quality of care and quality of life of the children and their families.
Eighty of the top graduated high school seniors from New Hampshire and Vermont are selected to square off each year in a football game where the real winners are the Children in the Shrine Hospitals. More than 4,000 players have participated in the event, of which about two-thirds still live in the Twin States.

Heroes: A Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl Documentary
“The Shriner’s Bowl has always been an inspiration to us. Every year we have customers and employees whose kids are playing in it, and we love seeing all the excitement it brings. This year we wanted to show our appreciation for what the event is truly about.”
