A big thank you to everyone that came out and made this season’s opening draw a success.  It was great to see 2 novices join us; hopefully they can persuade some of their peers to join us next week.

Once again the Clubhouse door was found ajar, unlocked and the office door open at 5.15 pm this Thursday evening.

All Members are reminded that it is everyone’s responsibility to ensure that if you are last to leave the Club that the premises are secure regardless if there are Greenskeepers or other Westshore personnel around, or if you think someone else will be there shortly.

If in doubt lock it up anyway.

This is the third time this year already and we are not even at the end of May.

Please be diligent and aware.

In the last few years the Club has been purchasing new bowls to replace our old ones. We now need the space to store our new bowls, therefore we are selling off some of our older bowls.

For those who didn’t pre order and would like to purchase a shirt or hat, there is still stock available. Shirts are $30.00 and hats are $20.00 so send an email to me at jayar1950@icloud.com and I will add you to the list.

Thanks,
Jack

Gordon Head is planning to put in another order for AERO Bowls this month if you’re interested in order new bowls, go to https://www.aerobowls.com/products/groove to select the bowl you desire.  I need the following information

Last year we had a coaching night for all the Novices on Thursday evenings from 6-8pm that was very popular for our new bowlers, however many of our other club members expressed interest that this is something that they would also like to be included in for personal skills development.

Judy will be putting in an order for name badges for our new members and new coaches. These will reflect our new logo.

Reminder – The first game of Sunday Cutthroat will be next week, May 14th.  As this is a practice day, scores will not be recorded.

Our club is hosting The Galleon Mixed Pairs Tournament on May 20th and 21^st and your baking donations will be greatly appreciated as we will be providing coffee, tea and goodies during the event for a very reasonable price.   

At the request of our members we have posted the Club House phone number on our website. The number is now located on the side bar below Contact Us. Please note there is no answering service connected to the number and it will only be answered if someone is in the Club House.
