The Summit Triples carnival is fast approaching. More nominations are needed for the event. It is disappointing that some clubs in the district expect their carnivals to be supported and do not return the favour to clubs who support them.
A working bee will be held this Friday at 9am. There are several things that need to be done before the carnival.

On Sunday the semifinals saw Ed Diery defeat Bill Lee 25-8 and Peter Collis defeat Steve Tyter 25-18. In the finals Peter Collis proved too good for Ed Diery, winning 25-14.

Then on Saturday (10 February) the club returns to mixed social bowls, with play starting at 1 pm. Finally, don’t forget our AGM which is being held on Saturday, 17 February at 4 pm.
