There was some great talent on display this week starting with Wednesday afternoon’s Jackpot Bowls run by Merve Stewart with 30 bowlers competing for the prize.
John Askew’s team of lead Mario De Martini and Russell Jackson were the big winners of the day.
Wednesday night saw round two of business house bowls and it was the Whitsunday Gold Coffee team skippered by John Trembath, Robin Brown, Henny Tattam and Mark Mawson who won a close game.
Clay Coles, Aaron De Brincatt and Josh Christian showed great skills in going down 7 to 6 in a wonderful display of bowls. Thanks to the organising skills of Brian Delaney.
On Wednesday we were also advised of the passing of the fantastic Scotsman Stewart Clanachan whom will be sadly missed but always remain in our hearts.
Saturday mornings is now something that everyone can look forward to with John Askew’s Scroungers having 25 good bowlers going for this week’s prize money and it was Ash Warland, John Trembath and Peter Barratt contesting the final with Peter Barratt being the victor of the day.
45 people turned out for the official open day which was opened by our major sponsors PRD real estate with Annette Neil opening the proceedings.
The day was hotly contested with three teams being on equal points and the highest score coming out the winners of the day.
Congratulations to Nick Fernbach, Colin Morris and Peter Barratt ending a highly successful week leading his team to victory.
Thanks to all the beautiful afternoon tea supplied by Lyn Graham, Margo Stanley, Elaine Kippen and organiser Henny Tattam ensuring it was such a successful day.
