On Melbourne Cup Day, our stalwart members enjoyed an afternoon of bowls on Tuesday — with a pause, of course, to watch the big race. Winners came from Rink 3, where Bron Tolcher, Deb Retchless, and Mark Drummond defeated Bill Myers, Shirley Jones, and Alby Vigar. Robyn Stitt, Cliff Querro, and Gordon Querro also claimed a win over Lindy Suann, Irene Laird, and Gavin Charles. The jackpot didn’t go off.
Sunday’s social play saw Celly, Teresa, Skinny, and Stuart take the win over Albie, Irene, Deb, and Boof. In the other match, Bill Myers, Shirley Jones, and Penny Warren defeated Lindy Suann, Jim Quod, and Pat Tracey. Once again, the jackpot didn’t go off.
Our Division One Pennant Side travelled to Tweed Heads last weekend for the State Finals. While they didn’t reach the final, it was a fantastic experience and a great achievement to compete at that level. The team was proud to receive their Zone 8 Pennant Flag before play commenced. In the final, Helensvale defeated Algester.
