On behalf of the committee I would like to thank the following members for what can only be described as an amazing effort in turning up this morning in 9 degree temperature and completing the very formidable task of cleaning up C green .
What a great achievement! Kevin Wood, David Mullan, Duane Curtis, Peter Mc Garry , Trevor Clark, Mark Hinter, Wayne Ward , & Robert Martin . I would also thank those who contacted me and let me know due to the short notice they were unavailable. I personally thank you for your support, for the doubters this is clearly evidence that our Club is alive and well!
If I have overlooked anyone I sincerely apologise but I am working from memory here.
Andrew Hamilton.
Greens Manager.

On behalf of the Port Adelaide and West Lakes Bowling Clubs thank you to everyone who participated in the annual Stew Day. A maximum of 32 teams competed on what was a beautiful winters day in the sun. This first time collaboration between the 2 clubs was an outstanding success and we thank all the volunteers from both Clubs who helped make it a fantastic day. Special mention to Jackie Field and her kitchen helpers who laid on a great range of stews & casseroles for lunch. No one was left hungry. Overall winner for the day was a team from Playford with runners up Hawthorn.
We also thank the sponsors of the day in particularly Distinctive Funerals.
