The 7-10 split is considered the most difficult shot in bowling and always elicits ecstatic cheers when a bowler pulls it off. An equally tricky shot in business is breathing new life into a down-at-the-heels entertainment venue, but the transformation at Seven Ten has garnered rave reviews by putting“ a new spin on entertainment.” In the spring of 2008 Long Meadow Bowl— an anchor in the North End’ s Long Meadow Plaza for 38 years— closed its doors for the final time. The new owners researched layout design options and spent the next few years completely revamping the existing 24-lane duckpin center with a new entertainment concept.“ We are looking to be known as more than just a bowling alley,” explains General Manager David Wolf.“ The vision was to create a comprehensive entertainment experience in Hagerstown, with multiple activities and a quality menu for all ages.”
