And so, they came, from far and wide and savoured every moment of our Garden Party Gala Day with all its trimmings.
Thank you Forbes, Canowindra and Orange City for joining us to play and party on a perfect day for bowls.
Gratefully Ground Control were on the mower/roller early, primping our garden.
Buddy kept an eye on proceedings, but earned a scolding, and a leash penalty, for stealing the “spider” from the girls. An amusing start to the day!
Thirty-two brightly-dressed lassies rose to the occasion and rambled in the garden for a couple of hours playing turn-around triples.
Generally, the scores were fairly close, so well-done to the selectors.
Once the errant spider was recovered, the bowls were delivered in an avalanche of colour to try to claim a prize.
Janice and Jan were the lucky winners (Jan had to wipe a bit of drool off her bowl before play).
The lucky winner of Chris’ generous fruit and veg hamper was Joyce Boland (Canowindra) with Sue Smith (Forbes) taking second prize.
Robyn, Cherie and Joyce received lucky door posies.
Thank you to Rhona for coordinating this day, and to everyone who helped provide the sumptuous luncheon for over 40 ladies.
It all looked fabulous, and it was a super spread.
A reminder our next Trading Table will be “Easter” themed on 15 April.
Nominations are open for Club Triples, close next Tuesday at noon. Please make up your team soon.
This Friday it is our privilege to cater for the wake of dear Frances Charlton.
