A story that’s really up your alley. The Colorado Blind Bowling Association is showing those that you don’t need eyesight to be a professional bowler.
For as long as he can remember, Paul Trujillo, president of the organization, has loved to bowl. He’s been a part of the league for over 34 years.
“I’ve been into bowling all my life, my whole family was into bowling and when I turned 18 and found out there was a blind league, I wanted to keep it going,” he said.
For 30 weeks out of the year, a group of nearly 35 members gather up to bowl at Crown Lanes Bowling Center & Sports Bar in Denver, located at 2325 S Federal Blvd.
“Its just a way for blind people to bowl and get out and socialize and have a little competition,” Trujillo said.
But the league is not just for blind people members expressed. Individuals with all disabilities are welcomed to bowl competitively or just have a good time.
