Candlepin Bowling:
More than you'd ever want to know
Now you may ask, what the hell is candlepin bowling and why is there a page dedicated to it? Let us now examine the subtle differences between mainstream bowling and its subculture...Candlepin.
Pin Look
Old School
vs.
Candlepin
The sport of candlepins is a bowling game unique to New England and the Canadian Maritime Provinces. First played in Worcester (aka WustA), Mass. in 1881, candlepin bowling is an exciting skillful sport, requiring a minimum of physical strength while demanding great timing, dexterity and patience from each participant. Candlepin bowling is enjoyed by the young and the young at heart, the strong and the debilitating, by boys and girls and men and womyn, and especially faeries. If you've made it this far, please continue on to the rules.
The Physics of Candlepin Bowling:
Vital Stats: Candlepin bowling ball: smaller surface area, volume, and mass than the typical bowling ball Candlepins: lacking the voluptuous hourglass figure of the typical bowling pin.

Candlepin Bowling
Table of Contents
History
The pins in ten-pin bowling were originally tall and slender, almost cylindrical. It was hard to get high scores with such pins, so bowling alleys in New York City about 1850 began to use the familiar larger, bottle-shaped pins. After the Civil War, "big pin" bowling became the dominant version of the sport throughout the country. But in 1881, Justin P. White, the owner of a billiard room in Worcester, Massachusetts, and John J. Monsey, an expert billiards player, revivedor perhaps re-inventedthe older form of bowling. The original candlepins were 11 inches high and tapered to a diameter of 1 inch at each end. Bowlers used a wooden ball, 3 inches in diameter and weighing about 3 pounds, on a regulation-sized tenpin alley. Because of the size of the ball and spacing of the pins, it was very difficult to get a good score, so White and Monsey hit on the idea of leaving fallen pins, or "deadwood," on the lane to increase scoring. Using deadwood to help knock down the remaining pins is an important tactical feature of candlepin bowling. The pins are now somewhat bigger than in 1881: 15 3/4 inches high and 2 15/16 inches at the middle, tapering to 1 3/4 inch at the ends. The ball is 4 1/2 inches in diameter and weighs from 2 pounds, 5 ounces, to 2 pounds, 7 ounces.

NOTE: Yahoo changed their "MapQuest" addresses back in 2001, therefore, many of the links will not work until I get the time to update them (a very time consuming process). Hopefully, this will be sometime soon, but I'm not sure when this will take place. Anyway, the list is up and I am again trying to update it in the limited amount of time I have. If you know of a change to this listing, please e-mail me (again if necessary) at the address below and I'll try to get to it as quickly as I can. Thank you for your patience and understanding! :) UPDATE FOR 9/25/2002: The page has had several houses added and deleted as per everyone’s e-mails. If anyone knows of any errors or omissions, please e-mail me at the address below. Also planned, I will be noting which houses are ICBA sanctioned in the near future, along with updating the links and checking the website links (some of which appear to be out of date). Thanks for the help all! Bowling centers range from very small to very large. Some centers also are "mixed" or "split" houses, with candlepin and tenpin lanes offered in the same center. All of the centers listed here will have candlepin lanes. The number and type of lanes will also be included if that information is available.

Owned and operated by the LaRochelle family since 1954. Opened on Thanksgiving Day in 1939 by the Hebert family. King Lanes has seen many changes over the last 60 years. Back in the early years you could hop on the trolley car and get off right in front of the lanes. Once inside pinboys would set your pins instead of automatic pinsetters. In 1954 the lanes were purchased by the LaRochelle family and automatic pinsetters were installed, quite a marvel in its time. Over the years our center has undergone many facelifts with pool tables added in the early 60's, automatic scoring in 1989, and no smoking in 1997. Now in our third generation our family looks forward to serving your family for years to come. We are smoke free.
