Notes on what is currently happening around YOUR association
Mar 22, 2019
- Woo Hoo!!! FINALLY !!! Those who bowl (or want to bowl) at Leatherneck Lanes are now able to get a 1 YEAR pass!!!
The process is still the same and they still require the same information. However, by using the bowling center as the sponsor,
they can request the 1 year for you. Contact Leatherneck Lanes (760 725-6109) for more information.

- Just a reminder. For those intending to bowl the Adult/Youth Twosome tournament at Leatherneck Lanes on April 6th,
please be sure to get your visitor pass NOW!. Don't wait. Failing that, please contact
David Schaffer for more information.

Mar 2, 2019
- The USBC is going to adjust the squad schedules for the 2020 USBC Open Championship. The full story can be found
here.
- In another interesting piece of news, it seems that ONCE AGAIN, bowling will miss the cut for inclusion in the 2024 Paris Olympic games.
The organizing committee for the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games has instead announced that they will recommend breakdancing, surfing,
skateboarding and sport climbing as the four sports they will recommend to the International Olympic Committee for inclusion in the 2024 Games.
SERIOUSLY? Sport climbing has a larger participation and interest base than bowling? At any rate, the full story is
here.
Feb 25, 2019
- Results of the Adult Royal Finals are up. Still waiting on the overall results, financials, and the Youth.

Congratulations to Kyle Andrews & Lloyd Burleson for their 300's in the Adult Royal Masters.
Feb 16, 2019
- There is a new twist on a phone phishing scam that is going around.
Basically, it is a robotic call that says it is from your wireless provider and that your account has been suspended.
So... in the interest of keeping our bowlers informed, the link to the full story is
here. It will give you the scoop on how the scammers are trying to steal your information, and ultimately your money.
As usual, the bottom line is: If you do NOT recognize the phone number... DO NOT ANSWER THE CALL. Let it go to voice mail.
And if you do take the call.... Just because you are talking to a real person does NOT meant that they work for that company.
DO NOT GIVE OUT ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION OVER THE PHONE. A real company WILL NOT request it in this manner.
I really do not like posting these types of things on our site. However, knowing that some of our members have been taken in,
I feel it is better to be forewarned and forearmed.

- Ok sports fans, the USBC has published the proposed legislative items that will be voted upon at the USBC Convention (Apr 29 - May 2).
There are 3 league rules (LR), 1 tournament rule (TR), and 4 Bylaws (B) being proposed.

The delegates you elected to represent the members of this Association at this years convention are
David Schaffer,
Nancy Arvanitis,
Nick Barnett,
and Steve Johnson.
It is VERY IMPORTANT that your representatives hear from YOU, the members, as to how you would like us to vote on these items.
While the USBC provides a "Recommendation" of how to vote, at the end of each proposal, IT IS NOT MANDATORY, or BINDING upon the delegates.
So... without further delay, the following link with show you what is on the USBC plate for this convention. Please click
here.
After you've enjoyed the reading, please send your delegates an email telling them how you believe EACH proposal should decided. Accept or Reject.

(read CLOSE TO HOME) running from March 9th - June 29th, for those that have never bowled in the Open Championship (OC)
you SHOULD get a team together and give that experience a chance. Who knows, you too could win an Eagle. Provided you can beat Team Beav.
