What is on your mind on Saturday, Aug. 7? You’ll probably be helping to set a new world record, if you’re a bowler.

Across the United States, more than 3,200 bowling centers will be teaming up that day to set a new, single-day record for most games played.

The record-setting attempt will be the culmination of the 2010 National Bowling Week, which kicks off on July 31, dubbed National Bowling Day. Bowlers can download a free game coupon and bowlers can download a free game coupon at www.gobowling.com, in an attempt to help break the record.

Strike Ten Entertainment (STE), the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA), Bowling Proprietors’ Association of America, the International Bowling Pro Shop and Instructors Association (IBPSIA) and the United States Bowling Congress (USBC) are the sponsors of the event and week.

The current record of 741,821 bowling games played in a single day, which was set last year; bowlers across America will make an attempt to break the same.

To break, the Bowling Proprietors’ Association of America was established. To bring together what was at the time a fragmented group of proprietors and as an attempt by a small group of bowling center owners revive their businesses, this association began.
