Warwick Bowls Club hosted 12 men from the Warwick Men’s Shed on Monday to learn to bowl.
On Wednesday afternoon, some of the toughest people in the club showed up in the chilly conditions for social bowls sponsored by KFC.
John Ruhle won a $50 KFC voucher. He declined to take it, then Michael Dungey’s name was drawn out. He’s s going to donate it back for lunch some time.
On Saturday, the Club Selected Triples competition final was played with David Russell, Ray Southee and John Ruhle becoming the champs after defeating Marian Cirson, Marion Skaines and Jim Rickard 25 to 20. Well done to all.
