 NYS BPA   News

If you are not presently a member of the New York State Bowling Proprietors Association, we encourage you to become a member.  Without a strong and active trade association, the bowling industry in New York State would face perilous times ahead.  When you consider our many accomplishments over the past several years, the challenges which stand before us, and the many benefits offered by our Association, you'll realize it's a wise move to join the New York State BPA.

Who can join the NYS BPA?

.....any Person, Partnership or Corporation that is engaged in the business of maintaining and operating a bowling establishment for public use.

Bob also became the second bowler in the history of the Syracuse USBC BA to roll two 300 games in one series (300-300-229-829 in 1993). Bob will be formerly inducted into the Hall of Fame in June 2012 in Syracuse.

Congratulations Bob!
