Why this petition matters

Started by Nancy Schenk

Bowling Centers can provide safe, clean fun for families during this uncertain time.  We can provide a mental & physical outlet to people of all ages & allow social gatherings while maintaining social distancing.

Bowling Centers have gone the extra mile to change during the pandemic -   increasing cleaning & disinfectant measures that were already in place.  Are retail stores or grocery stores cleaning every surface you touch, NO, but we are.  Bowling centers were fully expecting to be able to operate under phase 2 using every other lane, but were blind sided yesterday by Governor Cooper.  In addition to every other lane, bowling balls & touch points have been removed & their cleaning controlled to ensure everyone's safety.

Keeping our businesses closed, most of which are small, family operated centers is unjust & unconstitutional. Allowing restaurants, retailers, pools, & several other industries to open, but not ours is unconstitutional.

The CDC just announced that the virus does not easily spread from surface contact, making an even greater case for us to open. Our trade association has provided training for all of our employees on COVID-19.  We are ready & deserve to be open.
