Balaia Bowls Club Remembrance Sunday 12th November 2023

First of all, many thanks to all those who were at Balaia on the day, players and spectators. An unseasonably hot day - 23º!) had one or two struggling by the end, but everyone stuck it out to the conclusion

Possibly our last event at Balaia, a very well attended and successful day of fun bowling saw a total of almost €250 raised for our charity, the local food bank. Six teams of triples took part in a closely contested contest, with only six points separating all six teams at the end. The winning trio were Alan Camplin-Smith, Jill Dunkey and Joan Smith.

A lunch at the Wander Inn in town followed. The raffle there raised €165 for the charity. The main prize winners were Alan and Sue Avery. Added to that were €35 from the pre-match spider, won by Don Cudmore, and €48.55 from the swear box including donations for sale of birthday cards. Nearest the wine winner was Helena Burke.
