WEST CAIRNS TPI

A bright sunny afternoon greeted 18 keen bowlers at the West Cairns Bowls Club last Monday. We welcomed back two past visitors who we believe will be settling here shortly. The winning team was announced at the end of the day as Rosemary Stevens, Les Kensdale with their skip being Fred Clarke. It was a change to be able to play the full game from 1.30pm to 4.30 without any interrupti­ons. Next Monday committee members are reminded that the regular meeting will be held at 11.30am and they are requested to attend. The cards are called at 1.15pm before the start of play. A substantia­l afternoon tea is included in the green fee including sandwiches, cakes and hot drinks.. At the end of play, a random draw of a playing card is made to determine the winning team for the afternoon and they are awarded with a small prize. Any registered bowler who wishes to join our group of players can contact selector Rosemary on 0409624623 to secure their place in the draw and she can also provide any informatio­n that may be needed. The green is carpet covered and protected from the rain by a fixed roof and can used in all conditions. We are always looking for new players who enjoy noncompeti­tive bowls played by members who have enjoyed the game at our club for many years.
