COUNTRY LANES IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS
Though VERY bittersweet, in an exciting turnaround for the community & bowlers, the lender has agreed for us to open and operate throughout the summer and next bowling season. For now, Country Lanes will be owned by the same corporation with Matthew Lapham, personal representative of James Hamlin’s Estate. Aleta and Michelle (with the great staff) will oversee day to day operations. This is the first step in the plan to re-work ownership into their names. It will take your community support to keep Country Lanes the “Cheers” of the area. You can safely sign up NOW for Summer and Fall leagues, or come on in to Open bowl!
Rest in Peace, Jim Hamlin.

``I have lots to work on, but you did a great job Michelle breaking it down and giving me the tools to know when I am ``on`` and when I am ``off``, even when working on my own. I have had a lot of instruction in a variety of venues over my lifetime, and being able to create a degree of independence is a rare and valuable skill in an instructor. You are truly a gifted instructor and I feel fortunate to have found you. Thank you again!!!`` ~Laura Martin, Dayton, OH

``It was so nice to not feel intimidated by such great coaches. I didn't know what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised to really enjoy the clinic. Even when I needed to be corrected, it was a fun and I learned alot. I recommend YBC to all my friends who want to improve their game.`` ~Gregory Baum, Muskegon, MI

``I received 1-on-1 coaching from Aleta Sill and words can not describe the wonderful job she did !!! I was a complete mess when I came to her. I had so many bad habits from trying to bowl with injuries, that the game was no longer fun. She was more than patience, with me. I never felt uncomfortable with her. We started from the basics and went from there. I ended my last season with a 175 average being the highest among my 3 leagues. After my first week of bowling for the new season my low game was 207, with a high of 237 ! She even re-drilled my ball which is putting less stress on my arm/elbow. If you need any help please see Aleta or Michelle, they are 2 of the nicest people you will meet. They know what they are talking about , while never showing any type of ego. They are MY bowling Heroes !!!!``

``I ended my 2015-2016 fall season with a 197 average. Through the first month of the 2016-2017 I was struggling to maintain a 182 average. I decided to take a lesson from Aleta Sill. I worked with Aleta for 45 minutes. The changes she made in my approach and delivery of the ball were significant but not overwhelming. What was most valuable was watching my old swing on video vs. my new swing AND comparing it to a Professional. She also noticed that all 3 of my bowling balls were not drilled properly. I had her re-drill all of my bowling balls and I also purchased the new Storm Code Black. Since my lesson I have shot 630, 646 and 636 in my fall league. My average has increased from 182 to 195 in just 3 weeks. The lesson I took from her was the best investment in my game I have ever made.``
