Ahoy me Maties… bowls club goes to sea

Rounds six and seven of the FedAuto Bowls Business League was played this last Thursday evening.

This past Saturday it was all about pirates, sailors and tarts as 14 teams took to the greens to play in the Glendee Yacht Club’s fun bowls day.
It was a very successful day filled with loads of fun, laughter and dress up.
Gregalina, aka “Greg the tart”, took the honours of the best dressed of the day with his outfit causing much amusement. There always has to be a winner and a loser though, with the stone last going to team Black Beard, third was BB Pirates, second The Sharks and the winners of the day, winning all three of their games, were the Vreken Vier consisting of Hans and Louisa Vreken, Lyn Dippenaar and Tewie Wessels. Now a fun day would not be possible without the support of sponsors.
A huge thank you to Buffalo Coal, Glen Sharp, Frank and Julie Muir, Bhekilanga, Wimpy and Glendee Yacht Club for your generous sponsorship. To Greg and Debbie congratulations on a well organised day, certainly, one to remember!
