| A great day was had at the club with a very good attendance from both local and visiting members and their partners. Judging on noise levels and laughter, there was plenty to talk about and the room had a very affable ambience. Newcastle Chair Ron Welsh welcomed all present with special mention to those who had travelled some distance. President Graeme Bool responded with a thanks to Ron Welsh, Cheryl and Jim Richardson for their efforts. Graeme also mentioned the success of the recent Doc Wilson Memorial Bowls Day and also thanked all who attended. Jim advised the gathering of apologies, special mention was made of new member Ed Hale who was present and Allan Willoughby (an apology as he is overseas). Jim also thanked his wife Cheryl for her support and the catering manager for the food which was of very good quality and he then distributed raffle winner prizes to some lucky recipients. |
