Dale Davis - Alta Iowa’s Blind Bowler Has 4 New Lanes
Alta, Iowa has become famous over night; the reason is 79 year old Dale Davis. Dale is blind, but man he can bowl, he bowled the first perfect game Century Lanes has ever seen - but I don’t think it will be the last. Dale bowls at Century Lanes located on Main Street in Alta. Dale is a slight man, a veteran and he is legally blind. His nickname is “The Hammer” and he spends his time with his sister Thelma and his little dog.
Clem LeDoux, the owner of Century Lanes, is expanding and adding 4 more lanes and Dale has a new pair of bowling shoes he plans on try out as soon as the work is done. That work should be completed this weekend, Dale will most assuredly be one of the first bowlers to try the new lanes out.
A little about Alta: Alta, Iowa is a small community, just 4 miles west of Storm Lake, it is a close knit community where everyone looks out for each other. Unlike the bigger areas out real estate market is still going strong. Kids can play outside safely and long walks hold only the threat of a sunburn. Alta is my home, and if I had known there was a place like Alta I would have raised my boys here. This is a place where people still worship in God’s house on Sunday, and God’s house is the place where the Word of God comes alive through all the inspired words of the Bible.
