Mackay Bowls Club News

Congratulations to Mona Townsend who turned 90.

Mona was awarded her Matriarch Badge last week.  

Mona is still an active player with the Mackay Club in Carnivals, PaH’s and club competition.

Mona’s memorable moment was when she skippered the Club Championships Triples team which included the youngest, oldest and newest member of the club to success.

Mona is a tireless worker for the ladies section and is always there to assist in the running of raffles and cent sales, taking her turn as afternoon tea hostess and until recently held the committee position of Match Chair.

Congratulations to Erin Clements and Helen Truscott for their nail biting win in the ladies Champion of Champions.
