Tuesday’s social bowls winners were Joan McGrath, Dawn Dowel, and Mark Mawson.
Friday morning saw the Endeavour Foundation participants—Michael, Jett, Cathy, and Kira—receive trophies for their excellent lawn bowls performances. In the afternoon, Christian College students, including Ocean, Harmony, Juliette, and others, showed great progress in their games.
Saturday’s Scroungers saw Dennis Donnadelli win the A Grade final, while Eric Barnard took the B Grade title.
On Sunday, Tony Whitehorn, Greg Fennell, and Alan Pershouse emerged as the big winners in social bowls.
