Children With Cancer Fund Mixed Drive Fund Raiser

  By , ,

We are going to hold a mixed drive on Sunday 5th December 1.30 onwards to raise money for the children with cancer fund.

For those of you that do not know what a mixed drive is… It is a fun afternoon for all abilities playing in teams of 4. There are 3 games of 6 ends each. The afternoon is a great way to meet new people and have some fun playing bowls. You can join up individually as teams are drawn.

There will be prizes!

For the entry fee we are asking for a donation (minimum £3) with all the monies going to the Children with Cancer fund.

To make it a bit of fun, come along in your Christmas attire!

If you would like to join in and raise some much-needed funds for this great cause please add your name to the list on the notice board or ring the club and ask to be included (48 players required)

 

Thank You

Dear Members,

I would like to thank everyone who has bought the second hand bowls, equipment and clothes over the last few months. We have raised £1,000 for the juniors, Dave Buttle has now ordered 3 more sets of bowls for them to use on a Friday 4-6pm Juniors session.

What a successful day.

Winter Season COVID Safe Bowling

  By ,

Our winter season starts next week and already the club has a buzz about it.
It’s exciting to look forward to our programme of friendly roll ups, matches and competitions available to us, along with a selection of upcoming social events. However, as we head towards winter, I can’t help but be mindful of how we can keep us all safe from colds, flu and Covid. 

We, as a club, have been very successful in the last 18 months in keeping the club as sanitised as possible and we will continue to do so as a part of our commitment to you.

It’s now that I ask you to continue to:

All members/visitors who have not pre-booked bowling or bar/restaurant must sign in at the Green Stewards desk for test and trace purposes. 

Hand sanitise on entry and wherever you see the sign asking you too.

Keep use of the toilets to a maximum of 2.

Sanitise jacks, mats (at both ends) and scorers after you finish your session.

Start play from far end for rinks 1, 3 and 5 to even out rink use.

Refrain from hand shaking and hugging – bring back the knuckles and elbows!

Please wear masks in busy areas, our staff will be wearing masks when appropriate to protect you so please think of them.

It’s great to feel ‘normal again’ but let’s be careful too.

Thank you for your support.
