| May | Another more than enjoyable social afternoon was had by our bowling members at the “Bowls Day” hosted by Kurranulla Probus Club at Sylvania Bowling Club on Monday 28th May. Our team of 24, led enthusiastically by Madam President, enjoyed success in a number of the games, however social companionship was the clear winner on the day. |
