Happy New Year! It seems Old Man Winter is playing tricks on us with all the snow
and extremely cold weather he’s brought us.

We know a warm place where you can still get the exercise you need to work off all
of those holiday pounds that creeped up when you were’nt looking! Gate City Lanes,
of course! Did you know that when you bowl you burn as many calories as riding
a bike? And bowling is much more fun!

Read below for all the upcoming events and how YOU can support bowling.

Superbowling with the Wolf !

To benefit Guilford Co. High School Bowling

Sunday, February 6th Noon – 3 pm

Did you know that over $6 million was awarded in scholarship money to USBC Youth
Certified bowlers last year? Over $15,000 was awarded in Guilford Co. alone.

Gate City Lanes and other local bowling centers have been trying to persuade the
Guilford Co. School Board to make bowling available to middle and high school students
(and eventually elementary school students) so that OUR children would have the
opportunity to earn their fair share of this money. While the current board has
been receptive, the budget crisis has placed this most advantageous endeavor on
hold and the board has challenged us to help defray the cost of the program.

Join us as 93.1 The WOLF and Gate City Lanes join forces to raise money for this
initiative and scholarship. For details and to register your team
