  • I enjoyed bowling as a young kid but after spending my teen years by an overseas Army Post where pretty much the only thing we had to was "hang out at the bowling alley," I've steered clear for the last 20 years or so. However I'm an Aunt now and love spending time with my nephews. At 9 and 13, they aren't the easiest to "entertain" for the day. I had them for the day last week and as I was wracking my brain for what we could do, I remembered that I frequently drive by a building with BOWLING painted on it large enough for an Astronaut to see. I thought, "they'll never go for it" but was thrilled to be proven wrong. Both boys loved the idea so off we went to Mt Lebanon Lanes (when did they stop calling them Alleys?) Recalling the smoky, dingy, run down bowling alleys of my youth, I was pleasantly surprised to find Mt Lebanon Lanes well lit, clean, organized, HUGE, and did I mention clean!?! Not a whiff of smoke to be found! The trauma of my teen years faded away as I dealt with pleasant staff, nice shoes & balls, and a building filled with happy people bowling away. The only thing I missed from my teen years at that Post Bowling Alley were the snack bar prices - wow have prices gone up since the 90s. My nephews both had a great time bowling at Mt Lebanon Lanes and I quickly realized that it's a fantastic activity for kids. It keeps them active and engaged plus they aren't glued to their iPods! They enjoyed enjoyed watching each other bowl and laughing when just about every ball I threw ended up in the gutter. We did have something get messed up one time with our pins but some magical elf who lives behind the machines had it fixed so fast that my nephews didn't even have time to finish arguing over whose fault it was. When we arrived at the Lanes (still want to say "Alley") and checked in at the front desk, the helpful staff told me about some sort of "Summer Pass" for kids. And although it sounded like a great deal, I laughed because I thought "I'm lucky I got them here once." Well the joke was on me because my nephews loved it so much that they've already asked if we can go back next time they have a day with me. We will definitely be returning to Mt Lebanon Lanes and I'll be kicking myself for not buying their Summer Pass.
