Join Maple Family Centers as we cut the ribbon on our newly renovated Maple Lanes Lakeland bowling center and kick off our 65th anniversary year, with a goal to raise more than $1 million for veterans\u2019 causes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professional bowlers, a Polk County Commissioner, friends and customers will join us for food, fun and bowling as we launch a year-long anniversary celebration and unveil our brand-new arcade, commercial kitchen, bathrooms and pro shop, among other renovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will also announce our \u201cOne Small Company, One Million Dollars\u201d campaign to pass the $1 million mark for money raised by Maple Family Centers for Bowlers to Veterans Link (BVL), over the coming year. BVL is a national bowling charity that supports recreation therapy programs for veterans and active-duty service members in our local communities. To date, we have raised more than $900,000 for BVL and are on a mission to surpass $1 million in our milestone year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
