GREEN CLOSED
Dear Bowlers,
Please be aware that the Green will be closed this Thursday 16th May until 1pm for maintenance. There is a funeral tea in the clubhouse that afternoon for a past member, Derek Cooke
BIG BOWLS WEEKEND - SATURDAY 25TH MAY - 10am - 1pm & SUNDAY 26TH MAY - 10am - 4pm
As you are probably already aware, we have an Open Day booked for the above dates. This is a golden opportunity to increase the membership in our club by inviting people from all age groups to come and try bowls in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. There will be a barbecue and the Bar will be open. Feel free to bring your family and friends along to 'have a go'!
To help the event run smoothly and spread the workload for those who have already volunteered, we would appreciate all offers of help on either or both days at whatever time you can manage.
There will be a sheet on the noticeboard for volunteers to add their names and the time(s) available.
Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated 😄
GAMES NIGHT - WEDNESDAYS 7 -9PM
Now that the nights are lighter, we hope that more members will come and join us on Wednesday Evenings for games, a chat and a drink. Members can play snooker, darts, dominoes, cribbage, Uno and other card games or play Table Tennis.
We look forward to seeing you there!
GREEN RANGER REQUIRED
We need a new member to join our team and help to keep the Green in good order. This involves mowing the green on a rota, once a fortnight. Full training will be given by our Green Keeper, Charlie Riggall. If you are interested to find out more, please contact Charlie on: 07557 057005.
Many thanks,
Josie

THE GREEN
The green is our most important asset and we must look after it, one of the reasons we insist on the correct footwear being worn before walking on the green. This is to protect the green, not only from heel marks but from anything that could be carried on footwear that would harm the grass.
The pathways around the green and approaching the club have been sprinkled with rock salt to prevent anyone slipping on ice. However, it is poisonous and will kill the grass. Someone has arrived at the club and, I assume, seen a tennis ball on the green and walked on to retrieve it. There are now distinctive shoe marks across the green and I am fearful the grass will not recover. This damage cannot be rectified until the autumn.
PLEASE do not walk on the green without changing your footwear or at the very least running your shoes under the tap or hosepipe first.
