health & sports Clubs | sun lakes lIfestyles | July 2015 | 37 Sun Lakers at Canyon Lanes At the time of this writing we are three weeks into our summer league. The SOB's are leading the eighteen teams competing. This team is Ginger Chavez, George Chavez, Karen Struchen, and Ray Struchen. Second is Sweeper Creepers with Cork Irwin, Gail Stormes, Larry Stormes, and Andy Toro. High Scratch Series for the men is Rick Shanefelt, High Scratch Game is Dolph Mason. For the women High Series is Mitzi Taniguchi, High Game is Marty Steggell. Many of our bowlers had a great time in Vegas bowling in the annual Sam's Town No Tap Tournament. Some of them cashed in their division. One person I know of took first place in her squad. Donna Leone took first in the singles for women in her division. The checks are in the mail guys. Just a reminder to keep your bowling ball clean. There is oil on the lanes and it ends up on your ball. Use a ball cleaner after each session to help keep the ball clean and even get your ball resurfaced when you feel like the ball is not reacting as it used too. The pro shop can do this for a very small fee. Bowling is for people who have talent to spare. Home Again Bowling Our Wednesday summer bowling league is off and rolling! We have nine teams with a tenth team vacancy. We have a rule that requires the team bowling against the vacancy team must score within 40 pins of their average in order to claim the win point. The vacancy team has already won some of the games as we struggle to score against tough lane conditions. Current leading teams are the "Sum Fun" composed of Bud Fowler, Maethorne Fowler, Lois Preston and Curt Preston tied with "Me-N-3," Mitzi Taniguchi, Dick Taylor, Sandy Hepburn and Ken Smelker. Recycled Teens with Dot Lucas, Lisa Park, Al Kaminsky and Jim McCallum are tied for third place with team TNT, Dolores Arterberry, Vacant, Connie Matty and Tom Tykodi one game behind the leaders. We have plenty of time left for any team to jump into the race. Top men's game scores so far are Tom Keheley 238, Curt Preston 235 and Bob McLean 226. Top women's games are Micki Elsing 194, Maethorne Fowler 190 and Lillie Lawaetz 188. Men's high scratch series are Bob McLean 643, Sandy Hepburn 594 and Bud Fowler and Tom Keheley 581. Bud Fowler is a special bowler as he rolls right handed on Mondays and left handed on Wednesdays! High scratch series for women are Micki Elsing 519, Louise Deal 495 and Mitzi Taniguchi 489. As we move into June, we hope the lanes warm up with the weather to give us some more great scores! "It's just a game" is often heard as well as "are we having fun yet?" We all have "great expectations." Now just follow thru! Good luck and high scoring! For any questions, please contact Lil McLean at 769-2042.
