CORONATION CELEBRATION 8TH MAY 2023
60 members and guests enjoyed a day of celebration. The morning's bowling was delayed by rain! However a challenging quiz and cups of tea and coffee passed the time until play could begin. 3 rounds of various bowling challenges organised by Jill ended with a win for Fiona. Everyone then sat down to enjoy an abundant tea, prepared by Barbara and Jill. The Club Captain Chris proposed the loyal toast and then cut the celebration cake which was made by Keith. The proceedings ended with the Grand Draw set up by Joyce. The draw takings covered the cost of the day and we are grateful to all who contributed prizes and bought tickets. All the attendees left with a Coronation Coaster as a souvenir of the day. Thanks are due to everyone who helped in so many ways. The organisers Jill, Barbara and Joyce and those who helped set up and clear away. this was a small reflection of the nation's Big Help Out Event and appeals were made for help on May 20th for the Gateway Visit and May 25th for the Big Bowls Weekend.

LADIES INVITATION DAY 1ST MAY
12 Mixed Pairs spent an enjoyable morning playing a total of 21 ends for the Greta Pairs Trophy. The Ladies treated the Gentlemen to coffee and lunch. Everyone appreciated the jacket potatoes and jelly and ice cream provided by Barbara and her team of helpers. The lunch was followed by the presentation of the trophy to Clive & Rosemary and a special award to Dave M for winning the Spider. After the raffle everyone went home saying what a great day it had been. A big thank you to Jill who organised the event.
