A past member of Sunbury Bowls has very kindly left us a legacy in her will .. a very generous £5,000. Barbara McQuade was an active player in her time, winning the Women’s Pairs alongside Ann Templeman in 2000. Playing bowls obviously did her no harm as she passed away at the ripe old age of 100! There are plans afoot for a summerhouse to be built by the green and it will hopefully bear her name in due course. RIP Barbara.
The start of October heralded the first Winter Social – a gentle game of skittles, although no one told the Surplus Firer! Pat arranged for some of her colleagues to try bowls before the season ended and hopefully they will stick around during the winter and come out firing on the bowls green come April. The next social is Cash Bingo with Neil who will be calling all the numbers on 5th November from 7:30pm.
Further into November we have the annual Club Dinner & Presentation of Awards on 15th. Please make contact asap if you haven’t put your name down and would like to attend. Also look out for invoices from Barry arriving in due course.
