As a compassionate member of our community, Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge is proud to host this exciting event for the fifth year.”

About Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge
In 2003 veteran restaurant and entertainment entrepreneurs Steven and Gillian Foster and Kevin Troy conceived the idea of Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge. Inspired by the notion of bringing people together in a high energy, fashionable environment, they created Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge to be an entertainment venue featuring bowling as its primary social draw. By marrying elegant nostalgia and modern technology, they gave birth to “America’s first bowling lounge.” The combination of warm tones, leather sofas, original artwork, intimate bar, and private party space makes this venue unique, dramatic, and inviting. The exciting menu was created exclusively for Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge by celebrated chef, Bill Starbuck, well known as the caterer of choice for such prestigious events as the Emmy’s and the Grammy’s. Six years and 19 locations later, Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge continues to roll its way across the country. To learn more, visit www.bowlluckystrike.com.
