Parkes Phoenix

Women’s Bowling On Melbourne Cup Day

November 9, 2017 By Maggi Barnard

Members of the Parkes Women’s Bowling Club were all dressed up for Melbourne Cup Day, but still enjoyed playing bowls. In two pairs games, Valmai Westcott and Betsy Johnstone defeated Merilyn Rodgers and Robyn Morgan. Francis Charlton and Audrey Jones beat Lorraine Baker and Marja Iffland.

In a triples game Chris Curteis, Flo Riseborough and Kim Evans were the winners over Maureen Miller, Minnie Riordan and Brenda Davies. Winners on the day were Valmai and Betsy.

The Christmas trading table will be held on 14th November with pick-a-box prizes. Bring a friend along to play bowls, bring lunch and ring table selectors for friends to play. Christmas shirts and bling to be worn. The Presentation Day and lunch at a cost of $20 is on 12th December – please put your name on the board.

The minor pairs commence on 21st November with Eileen Bradley and Isabel Svendsen versus Lorraine Baker and Kim Evans; Marja Iffland and Maureen Miller versus Frances Charlton and Chris Curteis. To play social bowls please ring table selectors Kim Evans and Rosemary Mitchell between 8.30am and 9am. Social roster Flo Riseborough.
