Federal Member for Dawson, Andrew Willcox, has today announced that an elected Dutton Liberal National Government will provide $100,000 for the Wangaratta Bowls Club.
“Wangaratta Bowls Club has been the cornerstone of the community, offering members of all skill levels the chance to stay active and play a competitive game of bowls,” Mr Willcox said.
“The popular club is in need of a new rink in the playing area for lawn bowls to ensure it can continue to serve the community into the future.
“I am pleased to commit $100,000 towards a new rink if elected. This upgrade will enhance the facilities, help attract new members and allow the club to remain a much- loved community facility.
“The LNP is committed to supporting small regional sports clubs, ensuring our communities remain active and healthy.
“Only the LNP has a plan to invest in community infrastructure, build better local facilities, and get Australia back on track.”
Wangaratta Bowls Club Chairman, Geoff Danvers, said “This funding will provide for a much-needed green replacement for our club.
"The current green is overdue for replacement and this funding will enable the club to continue to provide a quality, up to date, and popular sporting venue to the many local bowlers and visiting bowlers throughout the year who enjoy the game of bowls.”
