On May 4, dignitaries joined 70 members at Mann Park under the sunshine for the official opening of the lawn bowling season. After being piped around the green by Mike Macdonald, special guests rolled out the inaugural bowls. Following lunch, the members enjoyed their first game of the season.

A special thank you to Louise McKnight of Bay Realty who sponsored the event.

Kudos to our volunteer team led by Hilary Callihoo and Martha McArthur who set up, prepared luncheon, and cleaned up afterwards: Sharron Lyons, Linda Cooper, Pat Macdonald, Debbie Lambert, Bernice Day, Corrie Brawley, Alba Boris, Garry Stronach, and Ed Hooper.
