Madras Bowl opens doors to local bowlers
Madras Bowl opened its doors
to the public December 22, 2(KK) by
new owners, Dennis and Christie
Young of Tigard, Oregon. The long
awaited opening has made local
bowlers happy as the bowling leagues
have begun throughout the week.
After managing her parent's
bowling alley for 12 years Christie
Young has made it her goal to be an
owner herself. She has reached that
goal by purchasing Pelton Lanes.
Upon purchasing Pelton Lanes
the Youngs completely renovated the
building. New pinsetters, hoods and
racks, seating and electronic
scorekecping brought the bowling
alley up to modern times. The lanes
were kept and rcflnished. Other ad
ditions include new subfloor, heating
and air conditioning, and insulation,
which provided a comfortable envi
ronment for the bowlers. It is a non
smoking environment.
Since the opening the long
awaited leagues have begun. There
are six leagues in progress, plus 2 jun
ior leagues that have begun January
1. Teams are still being added to
leagues on Tuesday, Thursday
(women), and Friday (men).
Because the turnout of junior
league was large, it was divided into
two leagues. Tuesday junior league
is accepting more I " through 5lh grade
students. Wednesday junior league is
still accepting 6"1 through 12 grade
students.
Summer leagues are in the
works and will begin in ten to twelve
weeks.
'The lanes arc consistent, scor
ing is consistent, we haven't broke
down," says Christie. "We are open
when we say we arc open, we will be
consistent about our hours," she adds.
Madras Bowl is open 9:(X) to
1 1 :(X) p.m. Monday thru Thursday,
9:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight on Fri
day and Saturday, and 1 :00 p.m. to
10:00 p.m. on Sundays.
Madras Bowl will take reserva
tions for 1 lane up to 12 lanes.
Bowling products arc available
in the bowling alley and orders are
made for products not in stock.
In the future look for Video
Poker, Birthday packages and Pizza
to arrive at Madras Bowl.

has allowed a new enemy to infiltrate the Native Population. This new
enemy is Type II diabetes. Recent statistics from the American Diabe
tes Association and Indian Health Service are alarming: Diabetes is 4
8 times more common in American Indians 4-8 times common in
American Indians compared to the general U.S. population; Diabetes
is the 4,h leading cause of death in Native Americans; In some tribes, 1
out of every 2 adults has Type II diabetes; Diabetes is the number one
cause of blindness, end stage renal disease and non-traumatic lower
extremity and amputations in American Indians; Native People have
traditionally led active and balanced lifestyles, which helped keep their
bodies healthy and strong.
What is the American Council on exercise?

Charley asks for assistance to rebuild Hehe corral
Nikki Charley and many elder
tribal members fondly recall Huck
leberry Feasts of their youths as times
for visiting, storytelling, games and
celebration of family. However, they
regret that today's children cannot
experience one of the events most
enjoyed in past years - the rodeo. In
response, Nikki and other concerned
residents are working to bring back
"the rodeo for this August's Feast.
However, before this vision can
vbe realized some work needs to be
"done to fix-up the rodeo grounds at
Hehe. Nikki and her group are re
questing that anyone willing to help
on this project contact her. She is
optimistic that with a little help and
the resources and donations already
available, the rodeo will return to
Hehe this August and make this
H
in
year's Feast not only as wonderful as ,n
those of yesterday but perhaps the ' '
best ever.
If you can lend a hand or have
suggestions for the rodeo's return,
please call Nikki at 553-6431.
