Wednesday Social Bowls.
Fine Autumn weather and free running greens were the order of the day for the 36 players who turned out for Wednesday Social Bowls last week. Conditions were conducive to good bowling, and the close bowls around the rinks were testament to the conditions. Finding conditions to their liking were the first place winners, Dave Charrington and Gavin Borwick who shared $100.00 and a drink card each. The runners up were Barb Tennyson and Robyn Forge who shared $80.00. The losing rink consolation prize of $40.00 was won by Norm Windebank and Vicki Withers. The first Lucky Number raffle prize of $20.00 was won by a visitor, Merv Hannaford, well done Merv. Continuing her good luck, Barb Tennyson won the second Lucky Number prize of $10.00.
Friday Social Bowls.
This week’s edition of Friday Social Bowls was almost a mirror image of Wednesday Social bowls, with 36 players turning out to enjoy the ongoing fine autumn weather and free running greens. Finding conditions to their liking on rink 6 were Fred Donaldson and Noel Millar who won first prize of $110.00. Conditions on rink 9 must have been to Sue and Hayden Beca’s liking as they took home the runners up prize of $90.00. The losing team consolation prize of $60.00 was won by Robyn Forge and Greg Fisher. The first Lucky Number prize of $15.00 and a drink card was won by Col Withers, and the second Lucky Number prize of $10.00 was won by Mick Reilly.
