Bowling

Young or old, small or tall, fast or slow, bowling is truly a sport that is 
"FOR EVERYONE"!

"Open" Bowling or "Open Play"

We all remember a birthday party at the bowling center - and we never forget the fun we had.  Relive that moment and make new ones with family and friends! 
We have bowling for you!  from the early afternoon until close, we have lanes set aside to be rented by reservation and (with availability) walk-ins.  This impromptu bowling is commonly called 'Open Bowling' or sometimes 'Open Play' - just more names for recreational bowling fun!

Casino Bowling

Play the slots WHILE you bowl!  One of our popular games, especially for the seniors, is Casino Bowling. 
Here's how it works:  When you get a 'mark' (a spare or strike) in a frame, watch the overhead screen!  Once the automatic scorekeeper has updated your score, a video 3-reel slot machine will pop-up and begin a totally random spin.
If you get any matching symbols on all 3 wheels at the center line, YOU WIN!  Winning payouts are handed out at the front desk after every shot.  You can win up to $25.00  !!!
This is a special weekly 'drop-in' league.  That means no weekly commitment, just show up, pay your entry fee ($11.00) and bowl 3 games with the great folks you'll find already there.

Cosmic Bowling

What about if we turn the lights out?!!  Cosmic Bowling is another way to capture the excitement of bowling!  We have a premium sound system, a fantastic light show and every week we "Rock the House" with a cosmic bowling event!  Incredibly popular with couples and for 'date nights', Cosmic provides that intimate but interesting environment to spend quality time with that certain someone - OR - the whole family!  Like a league, cosmic bowling happens every week at a particular time.  Due to the huge popularity, we currently offer the choice of two times, an early and a later event start time.  And unlike a league, you don't need to commit to every week, you can enjoy cosmic bowling as your schedule allows!  Great, wholesome fun!!

League Bowling

Once you have the bug, or you're interested in meeting others just like yourself, it is easy to take that next step and find a league that is just right for you!  Depending on time of year, there is League Bowling for seniors, couples, juniors, recreational and competitive.  Recreational Leagues are the most popular - often called "social leagues", you can make new friends, see old friends and spend your time with them in a fantastic environment!  Leagues are repetitive and scheduled - they are normally recurring on a set time and day of the week and last for a pre-determined number of weeks.  Perfect for that weekly date night or 'night out with the boys'.

Tournament Bowling

Speaking of competitive leagues - (sometimes called "money leagues") - another way to get the most out of your bowling experience is to match your game up with other bowlers as a great way to judge your skill level.  You can even win prizes, awards and money too!  This form of bowling is called Tournament Bowling.  Tournaments come in numerous formats - like Singles, Doubles (2 person teams), Trios and many more.  So gather your troops and sign up now for your next battle!
