If things don't change they stay exactly the way they are, so the saying goes but definitely not at our little club in paradise , as everyday we have great changes creating new memories.

‍

Tuesday afternoon we had only 12 bowlers with skipper David Bradley playing sensational bowls with lead Maureen Barnard and second Di Dobbins in an awesome display.

‍

Wednesday afternoon social bowls had 26 bowlers competing for the winner's prize with skipper Warren Mills out on an awesome display with lead Mark Mawson with a huge 21 point victory, expertly run by Mervyn Stewart.

‍

Wednesday afternoon also saw the Ladies B Grade singles final and what an awesome display by new bowler from Darwin Regan Maher who defeated a gallant Sue Dakin  25-12.

‍

Wednesday night saw another huge crowd at Business house bowls expertly run by Yvonne and Bob Spees with a fundraising drive for Gail Simm's granddaughter who is fighting terrible brain cancer.

‍

Friday afternoon say the Christian College students facing last selection trials for the Queensland Schools Competition to be held at Club Pine Rivers on 19th and 20th August.  

‍

The bowls program is producing wonderful results with the students gaining confidence and taking this confidence into the classroom.

‍

Elliana Langshore , Miranda Jackson, Pazel Davis, Ollie Webb, James Feitz and Jack Hankin all show enthusiasm and enormous potential just to name a few.

‍

Sunday afternoon social bowls saw 25 bowlers attend well organised by Lyn Graham and Fiona Greener. Three games of triples and two games of pairs and the dice was rolled for the highest winning margin which went to skipper John Fielding's team with Lu Rogan at second and Helen Pisarek at lead winning 27-9 .
