The Life President, Chairman, Officers and
Trustees of the club would like to wish all
Members a Happy Christmas and successful
bowling in the New Year.
Christmas Draw & Fancy Dress (Country &
Western) Party
This will be held at the Clubhouse on
Saturday 17 December. It will all kick off
at 7.30 p.m. and everyone is welcome. The
party is in the form of an American Supper
so just bring along a plate of those
pre-Christmas goodies, enough to share, and
enjoy the evening. A programme of
entertainment has been arranged and, of
course, the Christmas Draw will be made (if
you have not bought your numbers yet then
there is still plenty of time – 3 chances
for only £1). Our MC for the evening will be
Peter Thorn and there will be music and
comedy, and the chance for some dancing or
just jigging about. A small fee of £3 per
person will be charged, to cover the
overheads.

Green Maintenance
There is an urgent requirement for two or
three additional members to join the
current teams to assist with the
maintenance of the green. The green
is essential for all of us and I
wish to achieve the standard of the
playing surface we had last year. If
you are able to help then please let
me know and I will try my best to
match the maintenance schedules with
your own obligations.

Paved Areas
The maintenance team is
currently relaying all of
the paved areas around the
green. It would be a great
help if you could stay off
the newly laid paving and
outside the roped off area.
The work is undertaken each
weekend and should be
finished before the start of
the season.
