Brunswick Bowling Products offered support every step of the way, according to Robinson. "Our partners at Brunswick provided valuable assistance in facility design and project planning," said Robinson. "They were highly involved throughout the con- struction process in assisting with project management." "Our team was engaged from the very beginning of the process," said Shawn Butler, Director of Business Development at Brunswick. "We helped the Harrah's Cherokee team evaluate their business in a way they hadn't neces- sary looked at before. We worked with our partners to provide them feasibility studies, market data and conceptual ren- derings, and we arranged a number of site visits to other successful bowling centers to ensure that they had all the resources they would need to make an informed decision." Brunswick (Cont'd. from p. 1) The Harrah's Cherokee team has been impressed with the bowling addi- tion. The anchor attraction and its restau- rant have become a focal point of the casino's offerings, bringing increased traffic both to the expansion and to that particular wing of the casino, while also retaining customers as they're leaving the large, 3,000-seat event center right outside. The 50,000-square-foot upscale bowling entertainment center offers a ground floor equipped with 16 Brunswick lanes, a bar, a restaurant and a redemption arcade area. A second floor with an additional eight Brunswick lanes provides a unique indoor/outdoor bar that includes a covered patio with mountain views. The bottom line? No matter what assistance is needed to get the most out of a new bowling center, investors can count on Brunswick to deliver state-of- the-art products and exceptional serv- ice.

Singsation Karaoke and Party Systems Dominate the Category Singsation Karaoke, a brand by Voxx Accessories Corporation, made a huge splash in the category in 2017 with its 5- in-1 Solo Deluxe microphone, and had national big box sell-through last year with karaoke systems ranging from $30 to $300. For 2019, it has announced even more innovation with five new systems, filling voids from $50 to $130 while keeping the massive pro model at $300. Singsation leads the category in profes- sional voice tuning, the most integrated sound effects and the largest room-filling light shows on board. Identifying the pain points of either buying karaoke music or subscribing to a service, Singsation took a different approach, making the smartphone or tablet the music source through free YouTube karaoke videos. Literally millions of lyri- cal tracks are available, and it keeps Singsation customers from having to buy any CDs or download and transfer videos into the machine. Recently, Voxx announced a strategic part- nership with Speak Music and the Melody app, which allows your voice to simply ask for the track or artist as it procures and plays it auto- matically from YouTube. The Melody app knows your phone is connected to a Singsation system and trig- gers the most popular karaoke version of your request. Now singers of any age can just say what they want to sing next, and it will play – no typing, browsing or delays in the fun. Ian Geise, President of Singsation, explains, ÒThe Melody Karaoke App by Speak Music coupled with Singsation's second to none feature set of design, voice FX, Sound FX and multiple light shows will make Singsation the choice for all that are looking for the best and most feature- rich karaoke machines. We wanted to make it easier for the customer to enjoy and most importantly not force the customer to have to purchase music and videos that they either own or can access for free.
