Interesting new additions to CG
We’ve added a brand new candlepin center to the mix…making it an even 150 centers (private & public) that are now members of our little party.
Parrot’s Pins Candlepin Cafe…a 4 lane candlepin center and restaurant from Nova Scotia has made an appearance on our website. It looks like a neat little place to go for a bite to eat and to throw a few rocks at the sticks. While I don’t think they take the sport too literally (it doesn’t seem to be a “serious” house), it’s a neat addition to our corner of the world, and I’d love to be able to get up there to see it someday.
Also, a new basement candlepin lane has been created by a fan from western Massachusetts. “Whip City Bowladrome” will be featured here, via YouTube videos AND pictures, very soon. The lane looks really well done and polished. And the owner has the ability to switch from candlepin to duckpin (is that even a sport anymore…LOL…kidding!), too! I love these home projects as it shows a level of creativity that I just can’t fathom.
It’s funny…we’ve been around for a fairly long period of time, and we’ve yet to cease growing! It is true that growth has been slowed as the number of centers NOT featured here has decreased tremendously, but we continue to add new and exciting features for our fans. That, friends, is a credit to the community. Keep those submissions and suggestions coming! We’ll do all we can to keep this site progressing and expanding!
In fact, check out the new gas price alert on the homepage…featuring more information than ever before, we’ll help you find the cheapest prices on gas in your area…or the area you’ll be going to—whether or not you’re bowling there! And don’t forget to look at the new Amber Alert widget. As you know, Amber Alerts are issued when it’s determined a child is missing and/or endangered. Being that our primary line of work is with children, we’re strong advocates of the Amber Alert system. Read over some of the stories and do all you can to help a child in your world…in whatever way you can…today.
