Well done to all those who traveled and played. A great day, and I've heard a great evening was had once they returned to the club.

Easter Triples

A full complement of 32 top class teams entered the two bowl triples sponsored by Carpet Court, Godfrey Hirst Carpets, Feltex and DB. Teams came from as far afeild as Nelson, Auckland Hawkes Bay and Taranaki.
The weather was great, except for the wind, you'd think we would be used to it by now, and the greens ran beautifully thanks to Michael and his trusty helper Liz. Everyone had a great time and some superb games of bowls were played. A special thanks to Joy, Harry Mills, Barry & Derek for your great effort in the kitchen and with the BBQ.
