Due to poor attendance after Thursday afternoon draws the bar will no longer be open after Thursday draws starting in July. In its place we will begin offering bar service after the Wednesday afternoon draw to see if there is more interest. I invite you all to stay afterwards and socialize with your fellow members.

To all our baking ladies, we had a successful pairs tournament this past weekend and lots of our baking disappeared! The triples tournament is in a couple of weeks and more donations would be VERY much appreciated. Please label and date your baking.
A big THANK YOU to all who have donated.

Hello fellow bowlers. We are having hamburgers & hot dogs along with bean salad for the June 25 & 26 tournament. It would be good to have a couple of persons managing the grill for the two days.
Please email me if you are able to help out.
Thank you!

Due to the Father’s Day Car Show, QB has cancelled the Open Draw scheduled for June 15.

Please come out and cheer on teams from around the District as they compete in the Hearing Life Mixed Pairs Tournament at our Club this weekend. There will be 26 teams playing four games each day.
Presentation of the trophy will take place at approximately 6:00 pm on Sunday.
I am looking for 1 more team to join the Mixed Pairs League starting June 17 and 1 more player for the Cutthroat league starting June 19.
For further information, please contact Joey or click on the first date of each event on the Club Calendar.
Thank you.
Parksville and Qualicum Beach Lawn Bowling Clubs have reached agreement so that club members can play in specified open draw matches in the other club without payment of visitor fees starting Sunday, June 15, 2025.
Initially, there will be a limit of 8 “exchange” tags offered on a first come/first served basis.
Process
• A visiting member shows their membership card to the draw-master and is given a “Guest” Tag. (Qualicum has some Parksville specific tags.)
• The visitor writes name, skill level (L – Lead/Second; T – Third; S – Skip) and club identifier (P or QB if needed) on Tag and hands it back to draw-master.
• The Draw will occur normally with the draw-master ensuring a good mix of guests and locals.
• Visiting skips may be offered skip positions at the discretion of the draw-master.
Here is the initial list of weekly open draws offered under this arrangement.
Qualicum Beach Club Draws
Sunday 13.30 draw (10 ends)
Wednesday 10:00 draw (10 ends)
Parksville Club Draws
Tuesday 13.00 draw (14 ends)
Thursday 09.30 draw (12 Ends)
Note that members can only use their home green for practice.
We hope this will build friendship and fun for both clubs.
We have 2 tournaments coming up this month and any contributions you could make would be much appreciated. Please label and date what you contribute.
Thank you
Marg
