About Us


Bowl-Rite Lanes opened in 1965, when it was built above the Shop Rite supermarket, which is how the name Bowl-Rite came into existence. There have been four different owners of this center. The current owner, Rich Donohue, has owned the center since March 5, 2004. Rich started bowling at this center in 1974, when he was 5 years old. His mother Linda used to bring him bowling every Saturday morning when he bowled in youth leagues with his sisters Cheryl and Elizabeth. Rich says that it wasn’t the just the fun of bowling that kept him coming back week after week and year after year. It was the friendships that he made along the way that kept him coming back, and that is what he hopes his customers feel when coming to the center.
