Center provides entertainment for entire family, but league bowling is king.
When Greg Van Buskirk got into his family business, he knew it would be a career that he'd love. Van Buskirk took over as the general manager of the Dacula Stars & Strikes. His uncle and a family friend opened the first one in Cumming. After Dacula opened in the Fall of 2007, they opened another in Dallas and plans are in the making for a fourth center. "They originally thought about doing a nightclub for teens," Van Buskirk said. "They are family people. They both have young teenagers." Ultimately the pair decided to go with something a bit more safe and family friendly - a place to have a good time at a relatively low price, Van Buskirk added. "They developed the bowling alley concept," Van Buskirk explained. "We wanted to do the game …

Sorry, but if you put a phone on a poker table during a game you deserve to have it stolen. Should have just flushed it in the toilet. Every poker player knows that you do not bring a phone to the table. Phones were once used to cheat and they have long been banned in every establishment as long as you are seated at the table.
