Meeting Report 3190 January 22nd, 2024

This week’s meeting was our annual Bowls Night hosted by the Gawler Bowling club. Many members and their guests enjoyed a lovely meal and then some fun together with a healthy mix of friendly competition and lots of frivolity. Others opted to be the cheer squad although a few of those were not actually sure what they were cheering for!

The meeting was opened and closed by Past President Kathy.

Please note an amendment to the past meeting numbers as follows:-

December 11^th, 2023 – Meeting number 3187

On Sunday 26^th January we joined with many of the towns Service Clubs to provide breakfast at the Australia Day award ceremony. As usual it was a wonderful display of cooperation between the clubs and an opportunity to enjoy each other’s company while we all worked together.

Please enjoy the photos of some of the participants from the 2 events.
