Opening Day 4th April 2008

The day started off bright and sunny though bitterly cold. However by 2.15pm the rain/ snow clouds could be seen coming over the hills so Helen Kerr, wife of President, Dougie Kerr threw the first jack of the season and everyone retreated into the clubhouse. Twenty minutes later the weather changed again as the sun shone so the hardy bowlers picked their numbers and played their first game of the season.

Work is still taking place to repair the flood damage to the main clubhouse so the West Clubhouse has been refurbished as a temporary home for the bowlers. It is hoped that the damage will be repaired and the main clubhouse re-opened in 6 weeks.
