The new pavement at the club entrance has been completed and the Bowls Shed has been repaired.
The front of the club house will soon receive a new coat of paint.
The new benches have been completed and add a pleasing complement to our green. Thank you to Fortis for providing much needed labour and assistance in getting the benches completed.
Many thanks to the volunteers who have worked hard to plan for and complete these projects.
The community is expressing more interest and awareness for lawn Bowling and exploring the sport that we all enjoy so much.
PGOSA has begun their rental schedule on Wednesdays evenings from 6:30 to 8:30.
Other groups that will be visiting and trying out the game include Fortis employees who have been so helpful in the installation of our new benches, City Hall staff who will rent the green for one session and a class of students from Balenas Secondary school for one session as part of their Life Skills program.
Miriam Gunn (fund raising director) has created a plan to provide Memorial Plaques to be mounted on the new benches. If you are interested in memorializing a friend or family member in this way, please contact Miriam for more information.
Watch for advertising on our new scoreboards which will contribute significantly to our revenues. Thanks go to Miriam for her hard work in seeking out new fundraising ventures for the club and to Mick Banks for preparing the templates for displaying the ads.
We welcome 27 new members to our club this year. We are very happy to have you join us.
