Bowling alley to reopen after cleanup from fire
Royal Crest Lanes, 933 Iowa, Lawrence, plans to reopen Friday after successful cleanup of a fire that occurred Aug. 4 in the rear of the building.
“It was an electrical fire that was contained to the bowling alley,” said Wayne Martin, co-owner. “We are currently in the process of cleanup and restoring Royal Crest Lanes.”
All patrons and employees were safely evacuated from the bowling alley; however, it was forced to close until restorations were complete.
Wayne and Larry’s Sports Bar shares the same building with the bowling alley but was unaffected by the fire and remained open.
