The outdoor bowling season is now underway here at Blairgowie Bowling Club, with a packed calendar of fixtures and events planned. We opened our green on Saturday 15th April with the bowling gods looking down on us favourably with fine weather enjoyed by all. We had a fantastic turnout with over 40 members playing on the day with many more in attendance, supporting and spectating along with friends and family. After the bowls, our members all pulled together to produce a wonderful buffet which was enjoyed by all. There was the customary raffle with some amazing prizes donated. In addition, we gathered together to watch the Grand National with some of us cheering more loudly than others as the horses crossed the finish line! The evening was topped off with another enjoyable session of live music. Everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable day and it was so wonderful to see so many members up supporting the club. I would like to take this opportunity to once again thank all members, friends and family for all their hard work in undertaking the many tasks involved to put on such a successful day. These included preparing the green and surrounding areas, contributing to the buffet and putting on the entertainment. It really was a fantastic team effort. BLAIRGOWRIE BOWLING CLUB Championships. Club competitions will also be getting underway shortly. I would like to wish all our members taking part in the various competitions, the very best of luck. Our ‘Rinks’ sessions are in full swing, they are held on a Monday afternoon, 1.30pm for a 2pm start and a Friday evening, 6pm for a 6.30pm start. If you are thinking about giving bowls a try, you are welcome to come and join us at one of the rinks sessions to see how you get on. You will be given a warm, friendly welcome from our members We can supply all the equipment that you will need, all you need to do is wear flat soled shoes such as trainers. We can promise it will be an enjoyable afternoon or evening. Bowling is a great sport that everyone can take part in, and we look forward to welcoming you to the club.
