 BOWLING LEAGUE DAY

 Gather your friends, family, coworkers or even a stranger down the street and head on over to your local bowling alley.  See who can knock down the most pins as you celebrate National Bowling League Day on September 3rd.  

The earliest form of bowling dates back to Ancient Egypt.  The balls were made from husks of grains and covered in materials like leather, then bound with string.   In 1945 in New York the first rules of standardized bowling were established.
