The Proserpine Bowls Club enjoyed a vibrant week of activities, starting on Wednesday with a well-attended afternoon of social bowls in preparation for the Memorial Day Carnival.
Players embraced the competitive yet friendly spirit, with notable results including:
• Alen Sanderson, Barry Zillmann, and Mike Harrison defeating Arthur Griffith, Dave Meiklejohn, and Sandy Daffara 26-13.
• Janine Schuurman (a visitor from Miles), Betty Whitehorn, and Heather Brown winning 18-13 against Keith Bates, Mary Hedgelong, and Tony Whitehorn.
• John Anderson, Bruce Uhe, Philip Brown, and Peter Lawton overcoming Lou Rogan, Bruce Uhe, Alan Pershouse, and Mark Mawson 17-11.
Saturday’s Memorial Day Carnival brought further excitement, with 12 teams competing fiercely. The winners, Ladda Purdie, Betty Nicolle, Warren Mills, and Manny Isgro, secured three wins (+16), narrowly edging out the second-placed team of Greg Kasper, Betty Petersen, Peter Petersen, and Andrew Bell (three wins, +15). In third place were Philip Brown, Heather Brown, Shane Kinnear, and Wayne Handley (two wins, +5), while Harry Craig, Amy Hart, Gavin Milne, and Barry Saroglia claimed fourth place (two wins, +4).
The club sincerely thanks sponsor Wilmar Sugar, participating teams, and members who contributed to the event’s success.
