23.01.2022 COVID 19 update Hi all as I'm sure you're aware we have some difficult times ahead. At a committee meeting held this evening it was regretfully decided to postpone our Super Bowls, John Hogg Memorial day and our AGM until further notice. Also as a result our handicap singles have been cancelled and there will be no more social bowls until further notice. The Committee will keep all informed of any further information. Thank you for your understanding during this time and we are looking forward to welcoming all back to our club in the near future. Secretary Jack Anderson
