“We had quite a few donations throughout the day. One of $100 and another of $50.
“We also sold raffle tickets and everyone paid their $10 to play.
”It was a fun day. It was really good.”
Moon said there was the potential of a couple new members coming on board as well.
“There was a couple young girls here that were quite keen and really enjoyed it,” Moon said.
“Hopefully they come on board. Something we really need is lady bowlers.”
Moon said anyone wanting to give lawn bowls a go can come down for a social game on Friday afternoons and Sunday afternoons. Players don’t need to bring any equipment.
Moon also has plans to hold a recruitment day.
