We are so privileged to live in the Whitsundays, with all the magic in the air living in Paradise.
However, on ANZAC Day we reflect on how lucky we really are. We are grateful for members of our little bowls club who are proud to do their little part for our community and the mourn many people that died to keep our country safe.
A busy week started on Tuesday where the first place went to the team of skipper Mark Mawson with second Di Dobbins and lead Sue Walker -- 26-12. Second place went to the pairs team of Tony ( take the money) Whitehorn with Dawn Dowell -- 23-18.
Wednesday afternoon Social Bowls saw 20 bowlers vying for first prize and this time Tony Whitehorn took the money with a first-class display with pairs partner Alan Pershouse -- 36-19 .
After the games, a dice roll determined that the lowest winning score would take the prize. This went to the team skipped by Phil O’Brien, with Tony Kelly as second—who delivered a particularly strong performance—and Sue Dakin at lead. They secured a 23–7 win.
There was also an A Division singles match between Warren Mills and John Fielding, with John narrowly winning 25–24 in a highly competitive and accurate game.
