We held the 4th Annual Veteran Novice Tournament on September 27, 2014. Veterans (more than 2 years of lawn bowls experience) were paired with novices (2 years or less of lawn bowls experience). Twenty bowlers participated. First place went to the duo of Jim Grzybowski and Diane Carlin-Bartel. Second place went to Glorianne Mather and Min Waite. This was both Diane and Min’s first tournament. Thank you to tournament director, Glorianne Mather.

Sydney Steller Tournament Returns
After taking a hiatus for several years and then being merged with the Otto Hess Invitational in 2013, the Sydney Steller Invitational returned as a separate women’s only tournament on September 6, 2014. While only two teams played, it was a fine day of pairs competition. The winners were Rebecca Nguyen and Glorianne Mather.
Favorable Draw for Summer Party
The outstanding participation by our members made this social event a success. We had 54 people in attendance: 46 members and 8 guests. The afternoon started with cocktails and passed appetizers. A delicious lunch and yummy desserts followed. Pipe music was provided by Jim Mataczynski. A spider game was won by Susan Ryan. Attendees then filled the east green with pick-up pairs games and others visited in and around the clubhouse. Thank you to Anna Witt and Rebecca Nguyen for coordinating this event.
