Editors Note: When we first started the tenpinexpress.com,nine years ago, in Pittsburgh. A story on Beaver Valley Bowl, was one of the first stories we did for the website. We looked at its Facebook page today, July 16, 2019, and came across this article. Could someone with any knowledge as to what has transpired since this story was first made public last December. Please reach out to us,and let us know what is going on. We would like to do a follow up about it. We care a lot about the game of bowling, and about a building that has a lot of history. Thanks, in advance for the help.
