In this heartwarming episode of The Bubble Lounge, we’re sitting down with Brayden and Brielle Schager, the dynamic sibling duo behind one of Highland Park’s most meaningful traditions — the HP Buddy Bowl. What started as a simple idea to bring athletes and special needs students together for a day of fun, mentorship, and football has grown into a beloved annual event that’s as uplifting as it is inspiring.

Now in college, Brayden and Brielle share how they launched the Buddy Bowl while still in high school, the powerful impact it’s had on participants, and why this event has become such a cornerstone of community connection. Whether you’re a sports fan, a parent, or just someone who loves seeing good things happen, you’ll walk away from this episode with a smile — and a strong desire to attend the next Buddy Bowl on May 3rd. Don’t miss it!
