Second Wii Bowling Night - Sat., Feb. 27, 2016

The first Wii bowling night we had in January at Travelers World RV Resort was so much fun, we wanted to do it again!

I must give a big "THANK YOU" to Don and Jocelyne who were the instigators of this new activity last month. Jocelyne spent a lot of time organizing the teams and setting up the Wii on bowling night. They also spent time teaching people how to use the equipment and play the game. In addition, they set up their Wii game in the Rec Hall for a couple of weeks ahead of time so people could practice.

We closed the office a little early tonight so those of us who work at Travelers World could make it for pizza dinner. On the menu were pizza, popcorn, cookies and brownies.

Once again, the bowling lanes were marked out on the Rec Hall floor to let us know where we could bowl. Thank you to the maintenance crew and Terry for keeping us in the lines.

We again had ten teams of four which made for lots of friendly competition. Everyone had their own bowling style. Looking at all the photos together like this, it looks like we're dancing.

You can see from the photos that daytime turned into night as we spent about 3-1/2 hours bowling. Everyone had a great time, even the spectators. There was lots of high-fiving and fist-pumping.

Here's our trophy.
Thank you to Delia and Fran for selling refreshments and to Bob E. for providing bowling music. It takes a community to put on these events. We're thankful we have many helping hands at Travelers World!

These evenings are so much fun! I'm thinking this coming season we may have Wii bowling leagues form.

All for now. January and February blogs are all caught up.

Wii (or Whee!) Bowling - Sat., Jan. 23, 2016

Boy, am I late on this one! One of our new activities at Travelers World RV Resort is Wii Bowling. Bob and I had never played Wii bowling before (as far as we can remember). We had so much fun!

There were 10 teams and we had two big screen TVs so we could have two teams play at a time. Even so, it took over four hours to finish. Our park manager and maintenance staff had marked the Rec Hall floor with bowling "lanes."

The attendance was great. The teams chose clever names such as King Pins, Pin Heads, and our team was Super Bowlers.

We had bowlers and spectators, so people cheered us on. Here are some of the best photos of the evening...
