Gone are the tacky polyester button-ups that identify bowling leagues, but the fun is all the same.

Lanes, Trains and Automobiles has announced its 2012 leagues to fit a variety of ages, work schedules and team sizes. Bowling leagues offer great opportunities to create a regular social outing with friends or an avenue to practice, better or perfect current bowling skills.

The entertainment depot is located at 450 Butler Drive off South Church Street and can be reached at 615-890-3999 or at ltadepot.com.
