New Date Set for Club Singles Tournament

Written by Carol Bucyk on . Posted in Need to Know.

The smoke from both the Wesley Ridge and Mount Underwood fires burning close to Port Alberni have affected our tournament play date.  We will now have the semifinals on Sunday, August 17th at 10 A.M. and the finals will be at 1 P.M. that same day.   By that time, the rain and smoke are supposed to have cleared off  a bit, and we should be in a good, healthy position in which to play.  In the meantime, everyone stay healthy and indoors if you can.  Apparently, this morning, our area (Parksville and environs) had  the worst air quality in the WORLD.

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

Rob Matthews, 15 players, 5 coaches and three helpers showed up at 6 pm Friday 8th for an introduction to lawn bowling to the newcomers.

The event was a success and it looks like we will gain some new members for both the short mat and 2026 season.

A big thank you to Shelley MacLeod and the others for a great evening.
