Witta school is now the Witta community hall, and hosts the itta monthly Witta markets. Beryl subsequently married a local lad and spent many years ‘on the land’. We are not sure when Beryl joined Maleny Bowls eryl Club; however it seems she has been a member for an ‘eternity’. She was president of the Maleny Ladies’ Bowls Club in 1959, 1969, 1977, 1991 and 1998 and served in various management roles within the club. She was also involved with the Maroochy and north ved coast district ladies bowls associations She is a patron associations. of Mooloolaba Bowls Club and has been presented lub with veteran, super veteran and matriach awards by Bowls Queensland. Beryl is a very well read, learned lady , and one with a strong and vital opinion, as those few of us who were , members during her final active years can attest. On behalf of the members of MBC, a happy birthday.
