Coopers Rock State Forest
May 1, 2021
Located near Morgantown and Cheat Lake, Coopers Rock State Forest offers Irish Road Bowling a beautiful Spring setting for a family fun event. The park closes the course to traffic during the event, a rarity in this game. In 2018, bowlers traveled from as far as Chestertown MD and Dallas TX to compete.
Typically, team road bowling events are for teams of 4. Straying from tradition, the event at Coopers Rock State Forest this year will be the site of a doubles match. Join forces with your favorite friend, relative, coworker, or even pay a seasoned bowler to be your partner. This years winners will receive there own Championship Belts! Not to mention the customary bragging rights that come with every victory.
Registration at 12:00. Bowling begins at 1:00
