As we are planning our upcoming season, we are in search of a new lifeguard. If anybody has any connections or knows of an available lifeguard for our swim practices please contact me. Practices are on Wednesday’s from 6:00-8:00. Hopefully starting in October.

Due to an increase of price at Lancaster Lanes we are encouraging our bowlers to have their own bowling shoes. Prices for bowlers with their own shoes is still $10.00, bowlers who need to borrow shoes is going to cost $16.00.
