Attention League Secretaries and Bowlers alike.

On August 10th at our annual meeting, legislation was passed to increase our local membership fee from $10 to $13 effective immediately this 2026/2027 bowling season.

This recommendation to adopt a $3 increase was proposed by a delegate member in attendance and then approved by the board and fellow delegate members in attendance by unanimous vote.

Please make your bowlers aware of this when sanctioning this season as leagues begin to start in these coming weeks.

If purchasing a USBC Standard membership in a Greater Calumet center/league, the total would be as follows:

National = $15
Local = $13
————————
Total 🟰 $28

If just purchasing a local only membership the fee will just be the $13.

The following centers are in Greater Calumet and would qualify for the local only membership:

• Olympia Lanes
• Stardust Bowl - Dyer
• Plaza Lanes
• Inmans
• Strikes & Bites
• Set Em Up

If you have any questions, please contact Association Manager Justin Hauser.
