Clark Davidson had a bit to crow about after Turkey Triples at the Southern Cross Bowls Club went off without a hitch. Even the light shower of rain had the good sense to fall after the games were completed.
Marion Skaines and John “Cocky” Cochrane, visitors from Clifton joined Southern Cross bowler Cameron “Yowie” Wilson (Southern Cross). The group combined nicely to win the event and take the chocolates. Kim Hankinson, Barry Ziebell and Les Clarke were the runners-up.
The meal vouchers donated by the Criterion Hotel went the way of Dave Scotney, Cheryl Wickham and Bill Lee.
Alan Buse, Margaret Wright, Lyn Collie, Steve Tyter and Cita Weier all left with smiles on their faces and loot from the raffle.
On Saturday there was one game of Men’s Pairs Competition. Those playing Social Triples and Social Pairs were also joined by eight 8 or 10 barefoot bowlers performing some extreme feats on the green. Ever tried bowling on crutches? That had a few long time players speechless.
Thanks to the work of Billy and Wayne, the green was in tip top condition and ran 10 out of 10.
Saturday’s lucky winners drawn out of the hat were Lyndal Nolan, Barry Heffernan and Julie Booth. Cate Gardner and Lyndal Nolan also had success, winning the lucky numbers.
Thanks to the ladies, everyone was able to get into the Easter spirit and enjoy some hot cross buns and slice for afternoon tea.
