The annual Harvest Triples competition was held at the Marian Bowls Club on Monday, May 11th, welcoming sixteen teams from across the district.

President Thelma Johnston greeted players as they arrived for the popular event, which saw bowlers enjoy a day of friendly rivalry despite continuous showers throughout the day.

The wet weather did little to dampen spirits, with plenty of laughter and camaraderie shared across the greens.

A cent sale and raffles were well supported by the attending bowlers, while Joan Vickers donated a beautiful orchid for the lucky door prize.

With only three points separating the top three teams, the competition proved to be closely contested.
