Fantastic effort by our grade 2 pennants team.
Fought back after being more than 20 shots down to go down only by 3 on the master board.
You should be all proud of yourselves to make it to the semi final.
Great team spirit.
Yeah Diggers 🟡🔵💛💙

" CELEBRATION OF A LIFE"
Fay Mckellar Thorne
27 January 1942 5th May 2023
On the 31st May 2023 a total of 31 bowlers congregated to Cabra - Vale Diggers to bowl in the Fay Mckellar Thorne Turn Around Triples.
Names for teams were drawn from hats (ice buckets) while bowlers were enjoying their morning tea served with yummy scones jam and cream, tea cakes and pikelets.
Outside the bowlers couldn't have asked for a better day, the sun was shining and the greens were running true to form thanks to the tireless work of Adam Troth and Ben Harvey.
Fun, laughter and friendly rivalry was how the mornings game unfolded.
Game over, bowlers retired back to the club house for some savoury snacks and beverages while winners and runner up were determined.
Winners of the Fay Mckellor Triples
Carmen Anderson, Sue Ho**er and Nolene Saunders.
Runner up were
Sarah Woodford, Edwina Bohanon and Linda Kim.
Congratulations to both teams.

Partner Graham Mckellor respecting Fay's wishes there was no funeral service held.

The Fay Mckellor Thorne Triples was CVD Bowling Club's ladies way of paying their respect to a devoted and last member to hold the prestigious office of President before our clubs were unified.

Ladies of Cabra - Vales Bowling Club wish to convey their thanks to all bowlers in attendance on this very memorable day to celebrate Fay's life.

Congratulations to our CVD Bowls Co-ordinator Brent for making celebrations for Australia Day a huge success.👍👏👏 Every one enjoyed their game of bowls even with the heat. Our chef Paul cooked a fabulous BBQ👏 the celebrations continued up stairs in our bowling club until late afternoon. Met some lovely ladies Diane & Gail who came from Reevsby to have a game and I bowled against my lovely friend Carmen from Cabramatta. Great Day and great company.
