SWAN HILL
SIXTEEN players enjoyed their game at Friday frolic last Friday with our club always happy to welcome bowlers from other clubs and visitors to town.
The sun shone and took some of the winter chill out of the air, with every winning team receiving a prize and every player having a chance of winning the jackpot, which hasn’t gone off for some time.
Today could be the day?
Friday frolic will be on again at 3pm today and hopefully the coldest part of the week has passed by now and the wind has blown itself out.
Names need to be in by 2.30pm to go into the draw, with the clubhouse warm for you to retire to after the game and take part in Mick’s raffles or enjoy either a hot or cold drink with a warm snack.
For those who don’t wish to play bowls, you can always come along and socialise.
