Dear Members:
OK, where was everyone this month. Entries for City Lanes were down by nearly
a third from last year. Maybe I didn't get the memo?
We had 85 bowlers this month. Thanks to Jay Johnston for sponsoring this event
and to Ed Bildhauser and the City Lanes staff for hosting us. Total prize fund
was over $3,700. Tim Knoll won his first title defeating Joe Szabo in the championship
match.
