The score sheet for the final tournament of the lawn bowling season is now tucked away in the 2024 binder.

Friday, September 27, was a perfect day for the Members Only Tournament, with sunshine and a cool breeze.

Twenty-five members competed in the tournament.

A team comprised of very experienced members won the tournament with three wins and 32 points. Dan Dekking skipped with Jeanne Burch, Carol Carlson, and Morris Hand making up the rest of the team. They were followed in second place by Andrew Blayney, a new bowler, and Jennifer Pearson who is a novice bowler. They also had three wins and 22 points. The third place team was a combination of Bill Bouwman, an experienced skip, and Shirley Reinders, a novice. They had two wins with 33 points.

In 4th place was another first year bowler, Ellie Smith, with her skip, Jill Calvert-Goetz, a former provincial champion. They had two wins and 23 points.

A barbecue was enjoyed by the participants, and the day finished with a variety of desserts. Lawn bowling continues until Thanksgiving and in the meantime the community is invited to the Lawn Bowling Café in the Curling Club (upper level) at the Apple Harvest Craft Fair October 5 and 6.
