The Airlie Beach Bowls Club held a mixed bowls competition on Tuesday morning, where they welcomed new members Mandy and Phil O’Brien. The winning team, each awarded chocolates, included Mandy O’Brien, Henny Tattam, and Betty Whitehorn. Unfortunately, due to persistent rain, no other games have been played since February 1st.
The framework for the dome cover over the lawn is now in place, signaling significant progress toward the project's completion. While delays have been unfortunate, the Dome Cover Committee has confirmed that these delays fall within the scope of the contract.
Weather permitting, social bowls will continue at times agreed upon by the bowling committees and coaching sessions will also continue from 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm on Mondays and Thursdays.
Stay informed about any updates or changes by following the Airlie Beach Bowls Club's Facebook page and keep an eye on this space for details about a new six-week "Come and Try" program, starting on March 6th from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm.
