VC Star Reports That Wagon Wheel Bowl in Oxnard to Close This Month

The Ventura County Star reported yesterday that the Wagon Wheel Bowl is set to close at the end of this month. Built in 1953, the Wagon Wheel Bowl was designed by Arthur Froehlich, who also designed Hollywood Park Racetrack and Hanna Barbera Studios in 1962.

We just so happen to have stopped by recently. A blast to the past this place is...soon to be was. As much as the Wagon Wheel is in need of upgrade, we are vary sad to see it go.

You don't see many of these scoring devices in more modern bowling alleys.My bowling shoes had quite a worn in feel at the Wagon Wheel Bowl...
