Our 11th Event | BOWLING SHOWDOWN š³ā”šš„ (GAUGING INTEREST)
About the event
š FranƧais Ć suivreā£ ā£ Hi everyone! For our 11th event, weāre switching things up and heading to Laurentian Lanes for a bowling night! š³ā£ ā£ With winter coming š„¶ weāll slowly be moving toward more indoor events, although we still have one more hike at Bromont coming soon. ššļøšā£ ā£ September 29th, i asked everyone in our WhatsApp community what you wanted to do next, and bowling ended up getting the most votes in the poll. So here we are! You voted for it, i am making it happen. š³šā£ ā£ This time, weāre bringing everyone together for some friendly competition. Strikes, spares, probably a few terrible throws, food, drinks and a little competition between the lanes. š
We chose Laurentian Lanes because we wanted the classic bowling experience with traditional large bowling balls and tenpin lanes. Most of the places we found downtown use smaller bowling balls, so we decided to go a little further and make it worth the trip. š³ā£ ā£ š³ Bowling ā š Friendly competition ā š Food & drinks ā š¤ Good times togetherā£ ā£ š° Cost: One lane is $63 for 1.5 hours of bowling and can have up to 6 people. With 6 people sharing a lane, that comes to only **$10.50 per person.**ā£ ā£ š Bowling shoes: $4 per personā£ ā£ š Food & drinks are also available if you want to grab something while we play, so bring a little extra depending on what you want.ā£ ā£ š„ How the groups will work: Weāll organize everyone into 3 groups of up to 6 people, with 3 lanes right next to each other. Since Laurentian Lanes takes reservations by lane rather than by individual player, one person from each group will cover the $63 lane, and everyone else in that group will simply pay them back. That way, we can all bowl at the same time, compete against each other, and still hang out together throughout the night. ā£ If youāre already part of our WhatsApp community, weāll organize who is playing with who and who is covering each lane directly in the group.ā£ ā£ ā ļø Important: Your Meetup RSVP lets us know youāre coming, but it does not automatically assign you to a bowling lane. Make sure youāre part of one of our 3 groups so nobody shows up without a spot to play.ā£ ā£ š **Getting there:**ā£ā£ ā£ ā¢ Bus: From CĆ“te-Vertu station, you can take the 460 East or 196 South. From Du CollĆØge station, you can take the 202 West. These options will get you much closer to the bowling alley.ā£ ā£ š Driving: Laurentian Lanes has a massive free parking lot with over 200 spots, so parking shouldnāt be an issue. Youāll know youāre there when you see the giant bowling pin on the roof. š³ā£ ā£ š Location: Laurentian Lanes, Saint-Laurentā£ ā£ Basically, weāre taking over 3 lanes for the night, splitting into teams and seeing which group can actually bowl. š³š Whether youāre good, terrible, or just coming for the vibes, come join us and letās make another night out of it together!ā£ ā£ looking forward to seeing everyone there! šā£ ā£ š«š· FRANĆAISā£ ā£ Salut tout le monde! Pour notre 11e Ć©vĆ©nement, on change un peu les choses et cette fois-ci, direction Laurentian Lanes pour une soirĆ©e bowling! š³ā£ ā£ Avec lāhiver qui approche š„¶ on va tranquillement commencer Ć faire plus dāactivitĆ©s Ć lāintĆ©rieur, mĆŖme sāil nous reste encore une derniĆØre randonnĆ©e Ć Bromont qui arrive bientĆ“t. ššļøšā£ ā£ Il y a quelques jours, on a demandĆ© aux membres de notre communautĆ© WhatsApp quelle activitĆ© vous vouliez faire ensuite, et le bowling a reƧu le plus de votes dans le sondage. Alors nous voilĆ ! Vous avez votĆ© pour le bowling, on le fait. š³šā£ ā£ Cette fois-ci, on rassemble tout le monde pour un peu de compĆ©tition amicale. Des strikes, des spares, probablement quelques lancers terribles, de la bouffe, des drinks et un peu de compĆ©tition entre les pistes. šā£ ā£ On a choisi Laurentian Lanes parce quāon voulait la vraie expĆ©rience classique du bowling avec les grosses boules traditionnelles et les pistes de tenpin. La majoritĆ© des endroits quāon a trouvĆ©s au centre-ville utilisent de plus petites boules, donc on a dĆ©cidĆ© dāaller un peu plus loin pour avoirā¦
