Keenly contested final expected

By Lea Orr

A perfect, spring morning, ideal for bowls. Greens, as usual, in tip-top condition thanks to our volunteers at Ground Control. Friendly company, gentle exercise, fresh air – we lay it all on here at the Bowlo!

So, Ladies, where are you? We need you back!

A good start would be next Tuesday, September 24, for our “Spring” theme, mufti dress, Trading Table Day.

Trading Table days are always fun, add your gift of $10 value & join in. Best news, you can even come if you don’t wish to bowl! Let’s see some of those absentee faces next week, please! You can also make & enjoy a $2 cheese toastie for your lunch!

Membership fees are now due as well, so pay those at the bar while you’re catching up.

In Major Singles news, Jo Simpson narrowly defeated Maureen Miller to progress to the final versus Rhona Went. Unfortunately, Liz Byrne had to forfeit her chance at the big prize. We anticipate the keenly contested Final will draw a crowd!

Better health to a few of our members who are in recovery mode. We’re wishing you well!

Minor Singles nominations are now open, so add your name to the board and enjoy the experience of proper match play.

In Tuesday’s games, twelve ladies contested 18 ends of turn-around triples.

Valmai, Marja and Merilyn enjoyed a close game, with many tight heads, and edged out Lorraine, Lynn and Maureen on Rink 5. From a spectator’s point of view, it was hard to pick the leaders!

Kay, Carol and Cherie had an easier task on Rink 3 as they won two-thirds of the ends played when they met Gwenda, Elaine & Rhona.

Après-bowls winners were Merilyn, Liz and Kay, pocketing enough to buy their Trading Table gift! The lucky rink jackpot draw stands at $90.

The club’s AGM will be held on Sunday, September 29, at 11 am. Come along to catch up with BC matters, and have your say with your vote for the new board.

This Saturday, the regional final of the Mixed Pennants will be played at our club from 11 am. Top spectator bowls between two outside clubs!

To play social bowls next Tuesday, September 24, wear mufti dress, and call the club, 68621446, between 9 – 9.30, with play at 10 am. Don’t forget a Trading Table Spring-theme gift.

Visitors and interested ladies all welcome!
