COACH OF THE YEAR
Joe Jimenez
In 1996, my daughter Samantha’s babysitter asks if Sam could join her daughter Jennifer at friendly hills to bowl in a league. Well my wife, Tommie, and I agreed it would be a good idea. So Sam joined her first bumper league. One day I want to see how everything was going at the bowling center. I did not know much about bowling them except that your arm is supposed to follow through to the top. Like when you raise your hand in class to answer a question. Sam wasn’t doing this so I asked her to brought her bowling ball up on the concourse and had an her to roll the ball to me and told her make sure her arm swings through all the way to the top. I guess that is where my coaching career started on the concourse at Friendly Hills. Continue reading 2012 WINNER

DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD
Dennis Fanucchi
In May, 1964, Angelo and Edna Fanucchi purchased Granada Bowl in Livermore. Son Dennis, was just 19 years old, who would have believed that it started their son to a brilliant career that would span nearly five decades.
Dennis was extremely active in the Bowling Proprietors Association at all levels, local, state and national. He served as president in the local and state associations and two terms on the National Board.
His dedication to the bowling industry harvested him a career of service awards which included BPAA Presidents Award, induction to the Alameda County Bowling Association Hall of Fame. In 1999 he received the “Decade of Service Award” from the International Bowling Industry Magazine and the Bowling Management magazine in their 10th Anniversary issue name Dennis in the top ten of bowling proprietors in the country.
In the 1990’s and early 2000’s Granada Bowl hosted 3 State Tournaments, each time setting records for the most entries from one center. The records still stand today.
Dennis, his sister Sandy and brother-in-law Tom Crane sold Granada Bowl in 2008. They are all enjoying their retirement years.
