AUGUST NEWSLETTER
WELCOME TO OUR NEW MEMBERS – we would love to extend a warm welcome to our new members Lisa & Marinus Leppens. They loved our Bingo night so much, they've decided to join us :) We look forward to seeing you both on and off the green.
CONGRATULATIONS Stephen Charles on passing his exams and becoming a registered Bowls NZ umpire. Awesome effort, you should be very proud Stephen!!
BINGO - This was a huge success for the club with our biggest Bingo ever. The club rooms were absolutely packed and everyone had an amazing time. A big thank you to all those involved in organising and running this event and also to all those that generously donated raffle prizes. Watch this space for a similar event coming up with a twist :)
FISH & CHIP / GAMES NIGHT is on Friday 15th August. We will be playing Articulate which is a Pictionary like game using words which will leave you with sore jaw muscles at the end of the night from laughing so much. Details will be emailed out later this week.
BEVERLY BEGG OBSERVATORY - Due to having to cancel last month because of bad weather, this has been rescheduled for Thursday 28 August. Details will be emailed closer to the time.

BAR CLOSED - The bar will be closed on Friday 22 August due to a venue hire.
NEW SHIRTS - Hopefully by now you all would have read the email sent out on Monday in regard to new shirts. We will be having a meeting this Friday 8th Aug at 5.30pm to discuss designs, fabric, colours and ultimately if we definitely want a new design or stick with what we currently have. This is something that will affect every playing member of the club so a good turnout would be appreciated.
