Hearing Life Pairs Winners

Parksville Lawn Bowling Club held its open mixed pairs tournament June 13 & 14,  sponsored by Hearing Life Parksville.    There were 26 teams in the mix for this one which had both an  early and a late draw.  Teams came from around the zone to battle in this one, with warm weather and blue skies being  the norm for both days.

The honours for top team went to Nanaimo’s Bruce McNevin and Glenda Chalmers.  Hal Gray and Joan Matheson of Courtenay came in second.  Third was also owned by Courtenay in the form of April Gilchrist and Vern Greenhill.  Fourth place was the team of Fay St. Marie (Parksville) and Brian Scherr (Courtenay).  Shelley Howieson and Terry Morris of the Qualicum Beach Lawn Bowling Club took fifth, while our own Bill Burgess and Diane Cruickshank took sixth.

A tournament just doesn’t happen, and to that end, we would like to give a big shout out to those who made this two day event such a success:  Thanks to the kitchen and bar crew, the grounds keepers, games people, players, spectators, umpires, and of course, our sponsor, Hearing Life Parksville, for without their generous support this event would not be possible.
