We live in Pinellas, and have found going out 466a to Micro Racetrack, then up to Rolling Acres, and 441 to Avandia Central an effective route to bowling. This avoids all but one roundabout, and the backup at the school is usually not bad. By car, typically 20 minutes, on a Sunday, to 25-30 minutes weekday. Traffic is not bad, very few traffic lights and a couple of stop signs. Would love to give you a lift, but we typically take a convertible Mustang and the back seat is small.

As a side note your ball and shoes will be almost useless on the new surfaces. While they worked well on wood, the new synthetic surfaces require new gear. Hope to see you on the lanes some time.

Isn't this a ML listing real estate agent? How does he represent what makes up The Villages amenities and are paid for my amenity fees?

OP, you may be on to something. A TV sales representative told me about a year ago that the number one activity in TV was...bowling! Golf was in the number four spot, iirc.

I've also heard or read that bowling was the number one sport in TV.

I heard that on the trolley tour during a lifestyle preview visit in '09.

I wonder how many bowling balls get lost a year?
