About the Company

B

Bowl America

Bowl America was founded in 1958 with the opening of Washington DC's first tenpin bowling center, Bowl America Shirley.  This center still operates today and it is located on Edsall Road and  I-395. Bowl America Shirley at the time was the only bowling center to feature  automatic pinsetters and underlane ball returns.  Bowl America Falls Church and Bowl America Fairfax, both of which are still in operation, were constructed shortly thereafter.  The Bowl America family currently has 17 locations in the Metro DC, Baltimore, Maryland, Richmond, Virginia and Jacksonville, Florida markets.  

Our business model focuses on league development as well as parties of all types.  Auxillary sources of revenue include shoe rental along with food and beverage sales.  Many of our management employees have more than 25 years of experience with the company, with some managers approaching 50 years of service.  It is with this long tenure and knowledge of the bowling industry  that our employees have lead to the success of Bowl America.  The company is the only bowling operator listed on the stock exchange under BWL.A.

The company offers its full time employees excellent benefits, including Stock Ownership and profit Sharing.  Both of which are provided at no cost to the employee.  Also available is medical and life insurance in which the company pays a majority of the costs.  All full time employees that average 1000 hours per fiscal year receive paid vacation and holiday pay.  Learn more about Bowl America by visiting our website at bowl-america.com.
