SMOKING
We would like the smokers to respect the non-smokers and refrain from smoking on the ramp area. If it is not raining we ask that the smokers use the patio area. Thank You!

Val Padwick who will be missed by her many friends and fellow Bowlers. Roy Newman, who joined the Club 53 years ago. Roy did a lot of work at the Club saving us a lot of money over the years. He was assisted by the late Laurie Owen, who carried on Roy’s work when Roy could no longer do it.
