16 teams enjoyed our first Saturday Seafood Day on the 4th of November.  This offered the opportunity for those that work during the week the chance to enjoy the seafood delights, friendship and some good bowls.  A great day was had by all.

 

Sunday the 19th of September the weather gods smiled on us as 14 teams took to the green to contest the Mens Birthday Fours.  Teams endured a fantastic morning tea and a marvellous lunch as well as playing three games of bowls. Special mention to Byron Ross who brought a team from Coolangatta for his 43rd consecutive birthday fours.  Eventual winners were Alan Thorpe’s team from Bribie Island with Geoff Jones’ Woodford team Runners-Up.  Mens B’Day Fours

 

 

Sunday 22nd of October saw the second leg of our annual challenge against Caboolture Memorial.  Woodford won on the day to retain the shield but unfortunately this years games were the last due to the redevelopment of the RSL complex in Caboolture that will see the closure of the bowls club.

Patrons will have noticed two new 5000 gallon water tanks situated at the carpark end of the clubhouse.  The tanks and renewed guttering are installed as part of our grant and are located here on the advice of our plumber and generous supporter Paul Burnage Plumbing and Gas.  Bollards will be installed around the tanks when the plumbing is completed.

Saturday the 16th September saw 16 teams participate in our open fours competition.  A great day was had by all and many thanks to all the volunteers that helped on the day to ensure it was a smooth running successful event. We had bowlers from Darra, Geebung, Everton Park, Kallangur, Donnybrook, Bribie, Kilcoy, Roma and Charleville.

2017 Winners Fred Cherry team from Roma.

Runner’s Up Lindsey Kindness team from Geebung.

Third Place Paul West team from Bribie.

First Round winners Steve Casey team from Everton Park.

Second Round Winners Rine De Klien team from Darra.

Third Round Winners Scott Crase team from Kallangur.

The final round of this four club competition was played on Thursday 14th of September at Samford in some very trying, blustery conditions.  The final scores were Dayboro 319, Woodford 376. Samford 415 and Kilcoy 421.  Thank you to all who participated.
