a look at Delton's 65 years ago........

Delton’s Bowling Lanes has been a neighborhood favorite for decades — and a glance back at 1960 shows just how lively the lanes were! Local leagues like the Granger Commercial League, the Delton Ettes, and the Delton Men’s League were buzzing with friendly competition, high scores, and community pride. Back then, bowlers like Tuck Woodbury, Lu Carol Harmon, Bill Nemeth, and Dean Orr were knocking down pins and setting records — a tradition of strikes and spares that still brings families and friends together at Delton’s today.
