Just a note to let you know that I have put a further 31 photos in the club’s Photo Album. You might like to check them out next time you are at the club. Two ‘markers’ in from the cold. Margaret Lowndes and Lodzia Wnek

Five teams from our club plus Ann Malone in a composited team, entered this competition and after Monday’s play, Susan and I and Ann Malone with Danny Madden managed to qualify. We played at Waikanae Beach on their top green and found it played well. Today the first day of post section was played at the Paraparaumu Club in cool …

A busy day at the club today with men’s and women’s fours continuing and in the afternoon, members of the public visiting as part of our ‘Have A Go Day’. The women continued with their round robin play in their championship fours and at the end of play, two teams had the same number of wins. Two big wins to …

The sun eventually came out but we could still see and feel the snow showers passing over the Tararuas throughout the day. Bowlers being a hardy lot, held their first day of Championship Bowls on the cotula green. The Women had only five entries so were playing a Round Robin event which included Byes. After the first two rounds, Margaret …

Not the best conditions to start our Men’s Triples Gala this morning. We were about to start when I looked towards Moutere Hill on the other side of the lake and noticed that it was slowly fading from sight, a sure sign that rain was on its way. Luckily, it turned out to be only a short downpour, and in …

The first round of Interclub got underway this morning with our Super 7’s men’s team playing at Waitarere Beach Club.

With the three rinks used being …

Ken got his scoring under way on the first end with a single but it wasn’t until the 7th end before he scored …

I now have the Women’s Interclub Team which will be playing Central Levin on Sunday in Round 1 of the ‘Unbeatable’ Reserve 7’s Section.

Play starts at 9.00am Singles: Lodzia Wnek Pairs: Margaret …

The first day for our Tuesday Roll-ups was held on the cotula green today and after being cut twice by Toni, the green was running very well for this time of the year. There was a good turnout for the 2x4x2 and different from previous years at about the same time, most players were having little difficulty reaching the head. …

An early phone call was received that today’s gala would still be on in spite of the over-night rain but was going to be played on the artificial green instead of the cotula. Aren’t we luck to have both surfaces. Two games in the morning, the first a win but the second a loss, mainly due to Margaret MacKay’s saving …
