Barefoot bowlers raise funds
SOCIAL bowlers turned out in force on Sunday for an afternoon of fun
and to raise money for the Laidley Hospital’s new Palliative Care Bed
project.
Organised as a “Race Day” theme, the event attracted some 60
participants to the Laidley Bowls Club’s greens.
One team, sponsored by the Lockyer Hotel, attracted much attention in
their snappy, race-going outfi ts.
A feature of the day was the drawing of the major raffl e prize, a
magnifi cent wooden storage chest created by Leo White. The winner
was Jacqueline Oyston of Hatton Vale.
Hospital Auxiliary president Cate Towner said she was delighted with
the response to the fundraising activities and wanted to pass on her
thanks to all who took part.
“I especially want to thank Woolworths for their generous donation of
12 fruit trays to be used as raffl e prizes,” she said.
Mrs Towner said Sunday’s event raised some $1500.

Old Boys’ golf day
The recently re-formed Laidley Rugby League Old Boys Association
is conducting a fund raising golf day on Sunday September 18 in
conjunction with the Mulgowie Angels Softball Club.
Old Boys’ spokesman Dan Flanagan said the main aim of both groups is
to raise money to sponsor their respective junior sides and individuals,
as well as helping out with their senior divisions.
“The Angels are sending a team to the masters games and some of the
funds will go towards paying for that event, whereas the Old Boys are
hoping to be able to reimburse some junior representatives with their
funds,” Mr Flanagan said. “We will also be handing over funds to the
local Meals on Wheels committee.”
The golf day will be a two-man ambrose competition, teeing off at
10.am with a shotgun start and played over 12 holes with everyone
back in the clubhouse around 2.30.pm for presentations and various
raffl es.
Refreshments will be available on course all day and a barbeque lunch
will be available on the way round. To nominate for this event, ring the
Laidley Golf Club on 5465 1518, put your team name down and come
along to join in the fun.
“Remember also that if you don’t play golf, you can still wander out
for the latter part of the day and have a chat to some of the old boys
and girls.
“We are hoping the day will be a success so as we may have enough
support to be able to make this an annual event.”
