took first place at Commonwealth for the Interclub Quaddie.
Dennis is missing from the picture because he had to leave early.
54 people played, and enjoyed a good day of bowling, and we were all fed and watered very well.

Australian Pairs Playoff's started in the rain, but improved as the day went on.
To nobody's surprise, Marlen won all three games to take the trophy.
Well done Marlen.
Provincial Novice Pairs
Mike & Susan, Who won every game through the tournament, took the Gold, but had to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, with a spectacular hammer run shot which resulted in 5 points, wiping out a 2 point deficit they had before the shot.
This was great of course for Mike & Susan, but very unfortunate for Dennis & Joanne, who had to settle for Silver, which of course is quite an achievement in itself.
Dylan & Anna took a hard won bronze over Jeff & Ron.
We had excellent competition, sportsmanship & organization throughout the tournament. Well done everyone!!
Gerald - Pat - Shannon took the honours at the Open Triples at Highlands this past weekend.
Looks like everyone made money here!
Heritage Fun Tournament
About 44 people were out to enjoy the Fun tournament, and BBQ on Monday.
It was a bit hot, but everyone did what they came out for; to have fun!
The first 2 pictures are of 2 of our 3 teams registered for the Provincial Novice Tournament.
We are hoping for many more.
Medicine Hat Triples
Tony, Barb & Monica were the hot teem this time, and took the trophy. At this tournament though, everyone is a winner, because winning is secondary to participating.
We take our hats off to our gracious hosts at "The Hat". They treated us very well, and supplied some good home cooked meals.
Well done Hatters!

Val was awarded a life membership, at the spring General meeting. This is to commemorate her many years of dedicated service to the Royal Lawn Bowling Club. She has been involved in saving the club from extinction on two occasions to my knowledge, and the club has a lot to thank her for. Thank you so much Val
