SWAN HILL
EASTER is now behind us and the Swan Hill Bowls Club are making preparations for our 2024 Autumn/May Carnival, which begins on Saturday May 4 and comprises 10 days of various events.
Entries are coming in steadily, with program books available at the club and entries to be lodged with carnival secretary Bill King on 0428 324 083.
On Friday our Friday Frolic will take place at 3pm, with names to be entered by 2.30pm.
This is a good chance to keep up your bowling skills and enjoy yourself at the same time or even bring a friend along, with everyone welcome and no experience required.
Bowls are available at the club for anyone wishing to give the sport a try.
All who bowl will have a chance to win the jackpot.
Stay around and socialise after the game in the clubhouse, with light snacks, happy hour drinks and Mick’s raffles.
A team of Swan Hill bowlers travelled to Gunbower’s tournament last Sunday, while others have supported events at local clubs.
Swan Hill Bowls Club has also been popular with groups coming from the caravan park for barefoot bowls.
