Did You Know?

This is an ad that appeared in the local newspaper in 1935. Bowling was a very popular sport at the time. And during the Depression it was a rather inexpensive form of entertainment. A champion bowler, Mrs. McCutcheon came to Peggy Runway Lodge to give instructions and exhibitions. The Lodge had four bowling allies when it opened in 1929 and held contests and special events to attract customers. From the Ruth & J. Frank Behling collections.
