New for 2024 The Resource for Bowlers (pdf) has been released. This excellent 50 page guide introduces bowlers to the game. It provides basic information about the game, hints and clues on proper bowl handling and gives some basic tactical advice.
Be sure to review this when you join a club or just to make certain you have all the basics covered.
Hi to all joining our Tuesday League from your co-directors Ken Jaglinski and Gary
Dalton! We are looking forward to a fun filled evening of Lawn Bowls, Friendly
Competition, Good Weather, Lively Conversation and a Pleasant Beverage (or 2).
Starting May 28th there will be pre-game lessons for those who want to sharpen their
skills and learn more about the game. They will begin at 6 PM and last to 6:45.
Our league officially begins May 28th . Please show up to play at 6:45 PM. Enter the
clubhouse and grab the tag with your name on it from the board located behind the
desk. Place your tag in either the SKIP (experienced) bucket, or the LEED (newbies)
bucket whichever level you feel more comfortable. We will draw from each bucket at
random to make teams. We will usually play pairs but may also play Triples, Floaters,
Cutthroat and Singles depending on the number of people attending. Starting at 7 PM,
we will play 12 ends to a match. However, teams may choose to play 10 ends
depending on their circumstances.
Scoring will be 4 points for a win, 2 points for a tie, and 1 point for a loss. We will post
standings weekly on the bulletin board and will total the points at the end of each 9-
week period. There may be surprises for the top three folks in each category but who
knows?
Please bring food to share. Expect about 25 people attending. We will begin early at 6
PM and nosh throughout the evening.
In case of inclement weather, we will send out either an email or text around 6 PM
letting you know of the cancellation.
We are always ready to hear your feedback good or bad!
Our Mixed Pairs tournament is now underway. We have 8 teams participating from June to August. Keep up with our results here.
Our previously scheduled Open House for Friday, June 14 is cancelled. If you are interested in lawn bowling there are many opportunities to give it a try. See our Try-it schedule or talk to a club member.
The first tournament of the season is in the books. A total of 28 members participated in the Blind Pairs tournament this past weekend, the best turnout in years. Bowlers were designated as Skips or Leads based on skill level and played four matches with different partners each round. Points were awarded for each win. Congratulations to the winners:
Thank you to The Greens Committee, Bob Schneider, Nick Schneider, Jim Grzybowski, Rob Behncke for preparing our greens. Thank you to Randy Stevens and Peggy Dickson for serving a wonderful Breakfast and Lunch. Thank you to Gary Dalton for readying tournament registration online. And thank you to Dale Parsons for directing and running the Blind Pairs tournament this year. These volunteers helped make the tournament a success!

For the first time in several years, this season we are planning to utilize the West green for league play on alternate weeks. To make the green playable, we need to do some work on the backboards including spot sanding and repainting as well as adding the rink stripes. We will also do some sanding and repainting of the benches around both greens.
Please let me know if you can help out with painting efforts this coming Saturday, May 4th starting at 9am. Obviously, this is weather dependent, so let me know if you can help and I will communicate the painting schedule with volunteers directly.
