Independently Owned, Locally Grown, Community Loved
On Wednesday 25 February the ladies at Marian Bowls Club put on an afternoon tea to celebrate three new members being given Life Membership. It was a lovely afternoon for all, with family members also attending.
Sue Austin joined the Club in 1991 and was asked to take on the position of Games Controller virtually on joining. Sue did this job for 35 years, and whilst she has stood down from this position to be Assistant Games Controller, Sue is still active at the Club despite health issues over the past year.
Lorraine Hamilton joined the Club in 1980 as a very young player. During her time with the Club she has taken on positions as President (twice) and Senior Vice President, Selector and Assistant Treasurer. She is always available to help wherever needed as well as being an active bowler.
Katie Moohin joined the Club in 1998. During her 28 years with the Club she has been President (twice), Selector and also a major Sponsor for many years of the Master 4's competition held at the Club; a major fundraiser event with bowlers coming from the whole district to participate.
