Pahrump 500 Bowling Club held tournament last weekend at the Nugget Bowl

Updated August 13, 2025 - 5:05 am

Last Saturday, the Pahrump 500 Bowling Club concluded its 10-Pin Regulars Singles with WHOOPS Tournament at the Nugget Bowl.

Hosted by President Dee Runau, the 2023-2024 book averages were used for the event after the 2024-2025 book averages did not correspond with the leagues in which they were bowled. If a bowler did not have a 2023-2024 book average, their highest winter league average was used.

Sponsors of the tournament included Veneece and Michael McNeley, while Diane Courtney and Jan Sawyer lent a hand at the check-in desk.

The winner of the 50/50 raffle was Larry Labrecque, who took home $55 in prize money.
