Bowling center rules for 3rd shift!!!

I am going to list the bowling center rules so that everyone will obey them. I am so tired of grown adults acting like little kids.

1. Please obey the dress code...dont wear your pants hanging off your ass and no gang colors or bandanas allowed.

2. No outside food or drink allowed ..dont even ask.

3. No horseplaying.

4. no smoking

5. no one under 18 after 11pm unless with a parent!! there is a curfew!!!

6. if you hit the pin sweep then the lane will be cut off.

7. respect other bowlers for they respect you!!

8. NO REFUNDS PERIOD!!!

9. NO LOITERING ALLOWED.

10. Everyone must pay to bowl, no jumping on lanes without paying.

11. Everyone must wear bowling shoes when bowling!!

these are a few rules that I will start inforcing on 3rd shift so if you come in after 11pm expect to obey the rules or you will be asked to leave with no refunds. I am tired of grown adults acting like 3 and 4 yr olds.

HAVE FUN AND ENJOY YOURSELFS WHILE AT THE BOWLING CENTER!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!

A comment from Bowling2u.com

I always look at this other site to see what folks are saying about us and I found this one comment that someone left and I want to say thank you for saying what you said and we welcome you to our center.

Here is what this bowler said.

"in response to someone saying that murfreesboro employees are helpful. you must not bowl there often. Very rarely are they at the counter. They are out wondering around with their boyfriends in the down stairs office. I have bowled so many leagues in that building and have seen it all. The owner does not care so the employees do not care. i have recently been bowling in Smryna and have been very impressed with their staff and how their buisness is ran. If Murfreesboro is so much better than Smryna why is all of their leagues now in Smryna. Except for 4 keagues that stayed. Think about it {deleted} "

Starting Friday (Saturday really) at midnight and lasting until 6 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 29 at the Smyrna Bowling Center will be the focus of a fundraiser for a local kid in need. His name is Brandon Brewer and things have been rough for him since birth. He suffers from what is called Hirschprung's Disease. His body cannot absorb the nutrients that sustain life.

His body has rejected his first transplant and he is on the top of the list for the next one. His family has plans on moving to Pittsburgh to be closer to the hospital where his next major operation will take place.

This is where some local people have decided to help them out. Together this group has organized one heck of a fundraiser that I will be attending.

A Special Email from the Brewers

I got home this morning and found this email waiting for me. Brandon has a cold but he is still thinking about the fundraiser next week. We as adults really need to take the time and give this family our prayers. I want everyone to really do their best and try to come out next Friday night to show Brandon how much he is loved. This young man is not only a brave young man but a young man that easily gets embarrassed when he is talking about what is wrong with him. When he came to the bowling center the other day and I showed him the special wall of things about him his eyes opened wide and his jaw dropped. I know he was in shock with all the support that has already poured in for him. Come on Smyrna, La Vergne, Murfreesboro, and Nashville, Lets do our best to help this young man. When times are at their lowest friends and family seem to be their to help raise bad times up!!! Here is the email.......


Good Morning !
Brandon has managed to catch somewhat of a cold and for the last two days his pain has increased but nothing and no one will stop him from attending the fund-raiser! Brandon has been begging me not to hook him up to his iv's that night but it is DEFIANTLY Not in his best interest but I got him to agree on SPECIAL tubing SOOO ~ I do need to let you know so that you can pass the word around that Brandon will be hooked up to his i.v. nutrition the night of the fund-raiser (over 12 hours) but I will have his machines and i.v. in a backpack which of course holds them. I will use vygon i.v. extension tubing which is a spiral tubing that weighs next to nothing . I plan adding two or three vygon's so that he can go about 3-4 feet without having to tote his heavy back pack around and so that he can bowl as well . The problem~O > every one and I mean every one that is near him needs to be extremely careful as thi s tubing is very FRAGILE! It is also Hard to SEE even if you are an adult unless you are looking for it. If a child/adult walks fast / runs between Brandon and his backpack the likely hood of something bad happening to Brandon 99.9 % such as the cath being pulled out of his chest which is connected to his heart.. I don't want you to be nervous and I will of course be there to try and make sure an accident of this nature does not happen but you can't prevent everything. We need to make sure every one walks slowly around him at all times and to also try and view his tubing so that they won't trip over it which is another thing that can likely happen. As long as everyone knows what Not to do I think it should go smoothly!! I'm not worried and he is so EXCITED!! He talks about the fund-raiser everyday and I get so much joy out of hearing him say " I'm staying the whole 6 hours, ma!!! " The smiles you ALL have put on my sons face, I will always treasure.
There have been times when I have almost lost Brandon and he proved all the doctors wrong but I always knew he had unfinished plans & people to meet. Brandon has got a lot of people to become organ donors over the last 12 years and I think we should set up a table with organ donor cards and information if we can as I think that is important to educate people. I can get free pencils pens and organ donor balloons , shirts (I think) just let me know if I can do this!!!
Thank you for caring & loving our Brandon the way we do. We appreciate you very much more than you will ever know!
I am truly blessed to be Brandon's mother...
GOD SPEED!
Love,
Brande

bowling for money from our city blog!!

this is an article from the city of smyrna's blog by gunner...please read and comment!!


Local high schooler Ben Anderson is taking part in a bowling championship to earn a $10,000 scholorship.
The roster of competitors for the inaugural Denny's All-American High School Championships is now complete with today's announcement by tournament sponsors of an elite group of 29 senior student-athletes chosen to compete in the March event. Denny's, the Professional Bowlers Association and the United States Bowling Congress made their final selections of the participants based on bowling accomplishments, academics and other criteria.
.........
The Denny's All-American High School Championships is being held in conjunction with the Denny's PBA World Championship, March 24-25 in Grand Rapids, Mich. Immediately following the conclusion of the Denny's World Championship, the high school finalists will take to the lanes to compete for $10,000 in scholarships on a PBA oil pattern and in an arena setting before more than 2,000 spectators.
Two of the 29 are from Tennessee.
......Maia, 17, of Mt. Juliet, will compete with 14 other girls from across the country in a tournament that, if won, will give her a $10,000 scholarship. She'll be among 29 boys and girls — and one of two Tennesseans — to bowl in the March 24-25 Denny's All-American High School Championships, a national competition that will feature a varsity high school bowling tournament for the first time this year, organizers said.
............
The other teen representing Tennessee is Ben Anderson, 17, a senior at Smyrna High School.
Wish him luck people.

aMUST READ POST!!

Well it seems now that thrusday nights from 11pm till 7am is the place to be or been seen here at the smyrna bowling center. Everyone i know was out last night plus alot of new faces came in and had a wonderful time. It doesnt matter what time you come in on thrusday nights we will have a crowd. 4am there was still alot of folks bowling eating and laughing the early morning away.

money to be made....

Now that most of the leagues have formed and are getting under way I want to let everyone know on the leagues that the " STRIKE IT RICH" is now up to $2,988.00! If you are not on a league you still have another week or so to join just come by and talk with Kelly during the day or Candy or Edward on 2nd shift to see about joining one. Now for those that are not sure what strike it rich is then I will go into detail here about it!

Strike it rich is for anyone that bowls on a league. You come in to bowl the day of your league and while bowling your league games you may sign up and pay $2.00 extra and the staff will give you a blank score card and on this score card there are a number of strikes listed on different frames. Well you have to bowl the 3 games and if you get the strikes that are listed in each frame and it is verified by the staff then you will the amount ...so right now if a league bowler comes in and hits all the strikes on the score card then they get $2,988


example----1st game has strikes in frames 4.6.7
2nd game has strikes in frames 7,8,9,10
3rd game has strikes in frames 1,3,4,5

you get the picture. join now a league now or you will have to wait until spring league start up in 14 weeks.

its final time

its that time of year again. the high school finals and will Smyrna bulldogs maje it 3 in row? will they be the state champs again? Make sure you are there early to get a good seat it will fill up fast this next weekend. also come hungry Roy Sue b. and the gang will be there feeding your souls!!!
