Ledbury Bowling Club
T
he first thing we want to do is say a very big
“Thank You” to all everyone who attended the
Macmillan Coffee Morning and helped raise £319
for this worthwhile cause. Thanks also to all
those who provided the wonderful array of
cakes, as well as prizes for the raffle.
The annual Bowls Tour in late September was another
success with members visiting Exmouth and enjoying
meeting with, and playing against, local teams in the
area, although the weather could have been much
kinder. Next year’s tour will be based in Weston Super
Mare and names are already being given to secure
places for what always proves to be a convivial time.
But now the bowling season is ended and the green
has been readied for its winter recuperation. The last
game to be played at home was the friendly, yet
secretly competitive, match between the teams
randomly chosen to play for either the Captain or the
President. One of the members suggested that the
money raised from the “Spider” roll up before play be
donated to help little Oscar Saxleby Lee who has a
rare form of cancer. The members willingly dug deep
and £155 was collected to help fund his treatment.
Our thoughts are with Oscar and his family and we
hope all will go well for them in the future. The
game was followed by the season’s Presentation of
Awards for the internal competitions and rounded
off by a tea.
During the winter there are a number of non-bowling
events planned - from Christmas entertainment to
Quizzes and various items in between - and for a
mere £10 anyone can become a Social member to
participate in all events throughout the year.
