HALLOWEEN GAMES DAY – 2024

October 28, 2024

Parksville Lawn Bowling Club

This years annual Halloween Games Day took place on Saturday 26^th October.

It was well attended by the full complement of 12 mixed triples teams. They all entered into the spirit of the games with many wearing very imaginative costumes. The games played were very much not Bowling orientated. The teams played electronic Tenpin Bowling, Table Curling, Mini Basket Ball, Darts, Corn Hole and Ladder Ball. The games were all very competitive.

After the games the were served with a well-earned beverage and a tasty Chilli and delicious dessert.

The day was rounded off with the presentation of prizes to the winning team of Kate Wilson, Terry Nichols and Gerda Veld.

Two other teams skipped by Diane Cruickshank and Barry Conn tied for first place. A playoff of one dart nearest the bullseye decided the winner.

A Prize of a fantastic Pumpkin Decoration made and donated by Lynne Hutchinson was presented to the winner of the Best Costume – Dianna Olenick.

Thanks to all the participants, including helpers with set up, food preparation, the games and those that helped with the clean up.
