The week started off on Tuesday with 25 bowlers including John Sutcliffe and Bill Butler.
Butler, who was travelling with his lovely wife Karen, was joined by Rosie Geeves – winner of the prestigious Health Hub award – each of whom were travelling from Howrah Bowls club in Hobart Tasmania.
John would form a devastating team with Rhonda Lloyd on the day, with the pair beating out all opponents, claiming a Tuesday overall win.
Wednesday afternoon saw 32 bowlers competing for the winner’s prize eventually claimed by Ted Cullen and Sue Pepyat.
The pair overwhelmed all comers, with visitor David Lavery taking home the wonderful Health Hub award to add to his memories of Airlie Beach.
Wednesday night saw the start of Business House Bowls which was an amazing success with many new bowlers competing.
Saturday morning Scroungers saw a strong roll up of bowlers with the Tony Whitehorn beating John Askew.
Nik Fernbach also lost out, although he seems to be regaining his old, outstanding form - and last week’s finalist Mark Mawson was also toppled in Tony’s trip to the winner’s table.
Sunday afternoon bowls was run by the club’s unsung heroes, Lyn Graham and Henny Tattam, who saw 36 bowlers competing for the first prize.
Skipper Steve Lawrie won the day with birthday girl Robin Brown and Lyn Graham, and visitor Barry Hirth won the Health Hub award.
Special mention must go to Jill Mazlin-Peterson who returned from coming second at the Champion of Champions in Mackay.
