Sources: Bowling Alley Plans Still On Track


Last year, this blog reported that Dorchester's City Slickers and its owner had a strong interest in establishing a new Dorchester bowling alley, especially after feedback given to Dorchester's new planning commission and community task force.

While there has been no immediate development, likely due to the current renovation and expansion of City Slickers, we are told the plan for a bowling alley is still in place.


To bring readers up-to-date, our sources say initial plans would place a Dorchester bowling alley in the two buildings north of City Slickers Bar and Grill (one of those buildings is blighted and vacant residential space).


The interested parties last year discussed the matter with the Dorchester Village Board and other leaders.


There is strong demand for such a social and entertainment venue in Dorchester and surrounding area.  Friend and Crete both lost their bowling facilities in recent years.   As a result, those who want to bowl on league teams must join a long waiting list before they can bowl in nearby towns like Wilber or Seward.


If you have any breaking information, please leave it in the comments section of this story.
