Bowling in Marinduque for the Holidays, Anyone?

Bowler’s Potluck Christmas Party goes on tomorrow, December 20th from 5:00 pm at the only bowling center in Marinduque, the Luna Sosa Recreation Center in Brgy. Santol, Boac. For the last three years the center has attracted regulars and students who, under a program, are taught the fundamentals of the sport of bowling by proprietor-manager Noel Sosa.

The bowling center offers a bowling training course valid for 8 sessions at 2 hours per meeting. The lectures and skills instruction drills are conducted on the lane with the aid of visuals and coaching tools employing the Dick Ritger bowling program. Training fee is only Php 300 per student with a minimum of 30 students per group. Bowling shoes are provided during the training free of charge. After the training course the trainees are entitled to a reduced bowling rate of Php 25 per game.

Sosa says the program helps instill discipline and positive mental attitude to the students through bowling’s fast-paced and dynamic environment and is quite effective in promoting a cheerful disposition among the players. He also adds that the said sport is also a healthy alternative to computer games and a break from the depressing news on television these days.
