A beautiful sunny evening on Wednesday 21st June saw around 15 volunteer members of the club help close to 40 members of local company Topcon enjoy a great evening of bowls.
None of the Topcon staff had played bowls before and most were from other European countries, but after some hasty tuition and a few loose woods they soon got their eye in. In fact, by the end of it, we would have happily signed up a good half of them as members :-)
The bar was open throughout and a mountain of pizzas arrived around 8.45pm to feed everyone whilst the trophy was handed out to the winning team - plus a huge roar and the wooden spoon for the bottom team.
We all had a great time and I am sure that goes for Topcon too. A huge thanks for booking the clubhouse and for displaying such great team spirit. The generous donation you gave to us will be put to good use.
