North Mackay Ladies Bowls Club Opening Day And Past Presidents Life Members Day

President Hilary Jones-Rowan graciously welcomed all bowlers present, along with Life Members Margaret Armitage and June Cousen, and invited guests from the region’s clubs.

The day began with a game of bowls featuring the usual 'closest to the spider' competition, with all attempts being close. Laughter filled the air across all the rinks. Following the game, attendees retired to the clubrooms for a delicious afternoon tea, complete with sandwiches and cake. This was followed by a very lucrative (for some) and enjoyable cent sale.

The lucky winners of the bowls competition were: Marion Delaney, Jean Schmidtke, and Chris Woo (skip).

Runners-up for the day were: Wendy Sonter, L. Tungate, and Lorraine Silman (skip).

Lucky Card winners were: Jenny Petersen, Judith Snow, and Lesley Baumgarten.

President Hilary warmly thanked everyone for attending and invited all to join for a cool refreshment in the bar area before departing for the day.

The club’s competitions began on Wednesday, January 29th, with the club Graded Fours starting at 12 noon.
