The Mackay City bowls green has been busy over recent weeks leading into the District Pennant Season. ‘Memorial Day’ was celebrated in fine style with Sue Beale, Margaret Egerton and Mary Burston winning the Glen Duffy Shield and Pauline Schembri, Jeff Neeve and Cath Davis victorious in the Brian O’Sullivan Shield - both gentlemen being past active club members.
Traditionally on ANZAC Day the ‘City’ club acknowledges past member Ossie McLardy who was an original Anzac in 1915. He was one of the lucky ones to return and enjoy a game of bowls in latter life at the club. The ‘City’ club honours his memory and all past and present servicemen and women on Anzac afternoon. This years ‘lucky Ossie’ winners were Kirstine Robinson, Pauline Turchet and Beth Dawes.
