    Attention all Danville Area Bowling Association members. There will be a meeting this coming Sunday afternoon, 3:30 PM March 30, at Spanky’s Banquet Hall, located just east of the Main St tracks. On the agenda is a possible dues increase and changes in the awards program. This is the annual meeting, and normally it is a low turn out. Let’s pack the house out, and show the Board that we care.
   The Battle of the Stars, a local tournament where the best bowlers in the Danville area, get together, and battle it out for the championship. The tourney invited both men and women, and included 2 weekends. One at Bulans, and the last, at Lincoln Lanes.
   The Men concluded on Saturday afternoon,with 5th seed Charlie Varner losing to 4th seed, Kyle Sirrat. Sirrat proceeded to knock out Scott Kopacz, the 3rd seed. Stopping Sirrat was 2nd seed Kevin West. However, West’s run was short lived, when he met the 1st seed, David T. Winchester, who, by winning the last match, obtained his 1st Battle of the Stars crown. The ladies conclusion on Sunday was also exciting, as 5th seed Janet McMasters worked her way to the top, by beating 4th seed Katrina Edwards 195-168. 3rd seed Brandi Welsch lost to McMasters, 191 – 139. McMasters then met 2nd seed Nicole Brown, where once again she was victorious 189 - 153. Then, McMasters, after bowling 8 straight games, matched up with number 1 seed Jackie Varner, and won the championship 231 – 197.
