California USBC members 50 years of age at the time of
participation in this tournament. The format is six games

We realize this is so-o much to remember but, don’t fret,

will not be mailing entries to those members who bowled
our event last year, we do have all the details for you on
our website CalUSBC.com.
For your convenience, we even have the applica-
tion in a typeable pdf form so you can type in your infor-
mation, print out, sign, and slip right into your mailing en-
velope.
