We Want You to Have Some Fun!!! Calling All Tenderfoot and Novice Players

Written by Carol Bucyk on . Posted in Need to Know, Upcoming Competitions.

This is the time of year when things really get underway in the lawn bowls community with all kinds of opens, tourneys etc., BUT there is only one event  designed specifically for tenderfoot and novice players.   This year, we are looking for people who want to HAVE FUN, PLAY ON A TEAM,  and are either a TENDERFOOT (those who began playing in 2021 or later) and NOVICES (those who started this year).    Teams are comprised of two tenderfoot players and one novice.  It’s a great way to get on the green and play with people with a similar skill set and who, just  like you, want to enjoy the game and have some fun doing it.   If this tweaks your interest, even just a little, go to Opentournaments@parksvillelawnbowlingclub.com and check it out.

Bartender Volunteers

Bartenders

Our club’s success relies on volunteerism. The bar is currently in need of a couple of new bartenders that are able to take on a couple of shifts each month. The only requirement is that you must have a valid “Serve it Right” certificate to work behind the bar. If you do not already have one, there is an online course that can be taken, and upon successful completion the club will reimburse you (approx. $37).
If you are interested and able to volunteer your time, I would love to hear back from you.

Our Calendar has Changed!!

Written by Don Urquhart on . Posted in Need to Know.

Due to the problems some cell phone users were having with time zones we have changed the format, that we hope you will find cleaner and easier to use!

All events are now preceded by either the start time of the event, or “All Day” for full day events, and the “Local Time:….” is gone.

As always, for the additional details of the event click on the event to open it.

Hope you like the new look.
