Tenderfoot Mixed Triples a Great Success for the Sport
July 15, 2024
Parksville Lawn Bowling Club
The Urban Edge Mixed Tenderfoot Triples event was held this past weekend (July 13 & 14) under blue skies and very warm temperatures. Water bottles, hats and umbrellas were the order of the day to help keep both players and those in the gallery cool and enjoying the matches. After all four games were played, Nanaimo took all three top positions. Glenda Chalmers, Wayne Migneault and Murray McLaughlin took first place and will get their names on the trophy. Dennis Dezell, Bruce McNevin and Sheila Moffat took second, while Joe Carter Squire, Alan Perkin and Susan Devenish took home third place. Parksville’s Isaac Wood, Lesley Leiweber and Vivien Weston took fourth while Joey Merrell, Amanda Hatcher/Howard Auld and Boyd Stanway earned fifth place. Rounding out sixth place was Nanaimo’s Grady Work, Marty Lacroise and Ariana Philips/Helena.
A very big thank you goes out to our sponsor Urban Edge. Also, we want to thank the groundskeepers, bar keeps, food services, umpires, games committee, Chuck Benson (for his great supply of photos), the gallery and to the novices and tenderfoot players who came out and displayed their skills.
