ARLINGTON, Texas – Keith Hamilton, President of Luby Publishing, Inc., has been elected Chairman and President of the International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame, replacing Pat Ciniello who served as chairman since 2007. Ciniello remains on the board.

Hamilton was Vice President under Ciniello and played a key role in the creation of the new museum and hall of fame. A board member since 1997, Hamilton has served on and chaired several committees for the IBM/HF, including chairman of the Salute to Bowling, Board Development, Marketing and Finance.

“It is quite an honor to serve the museum in the capacity of chairman, especially when following such industry heavyweights as Jack Reichert, Remo Picchietti, Bill Scheid and Pat Ciniello, all of whom I’ve had the honor of serving,” Hamilton said.

John Walker, President of QubicaAMF, has been named the vice chairman of the museum. The other members of the executive committee remain unchanged.
