Thanks to Hahndorf Bowling Club for hosting us today in a trial game. A fabulous afternoon bowling together - a great sausage sizzle to start the day and a beautiful afternoon tea to finish. We look forward to more afternoons like today.

Lawrie from MBBC and Laurie from Echuca Bowling Club were advertising their clubs in Madrid, Spain.
I tried to recruit a local for Mount Barker but he didn’t have a pen on him.

Dennis the Menace Day.
What a fantastic day to the memory of Dennis Stibbs. Peter and Martine Stibbs let our club maintain the memory by putting on the annual Dennis the Menace tournament.
This event fills very quickly as we have a limit of 14 teams. This year there were players from 10 clubs.
Some great bowls, plenty of fellowship and a huge raffle (fantastic prizes) were enjoyed by all.

Kelly hired the dome on Sunday to celebrate her 40th birthday with family and friends. It was a colourful occasion, helped by friends dressing to reflect artist Kelly’s usual attire.

It was Triples day at The Lawns Renmark Bowling Club today.
Once again a Hills team was successful with Geoff from Hahndorf and Joy & Lawrie from Mount Barker coming in third. (See photo)

We encourage all Hills bowlers to try to make these events. There’s plenty of competitions in Berri, Loxton, 2 clubs in Renmark and Waikerie making up a month of continuous bowls.
This year saw huge attendance from Moonta, Pt Hughes, Pt Vincent, Pt Victoria, Victor Harbor, Streaky Bay, Stansbury, as well as lots of other clubs around the state and a couple from Victoria.

Congratulations, and a BIG thank you, to the team of volunteers who dug up and broke up the tank stand base in preparation for the Toilet for the Disabled.
The concrete was obviously far, far thicker than anyone expected and did not give up without a fight.
