Two Draw Masters Needed

Written by Robbie Thomas on . Posted in Need to Know.

With our Season fast approaching, I am still in need of two Draw Masters:

Thursday – 9:30 am (10 ends)

and

Saturday – 9:30 am (8 ends)

If you are interested in overseeing one of these draws, please send an email to games@parksvillelawnbowlingclub.com as soon as possible.

I have recently heard that some people think if you are the Draw Master for a particular Draw, you are not able to play in it. That is absolutely incorrect!  If you are a Draw Master you can choose to play or not to play, completely up to you.

If you have any questions, please contact games@parksvillelawnbowlingclub.com

Thank you.

Bartenders Needed

Join the Team

The new outdoor bowling season will be here before we know it and the bar will be open more often than just once a week during the winter season.  That being said a 2 or 3 new bartender team members are needed to help share the workload.

The only requirement is that you must hold a valid “Serving it Right” certificate.  Upon successful completion of an online course/exam the club will reimburse you.  This is an excellent way to help the club as well as getting to know your fellow members better.

If this volunteer position interests you please send me an email with any questions you may have and I will help get you started.
