Canada Cup 2023

A beautiful sunny day heralded our Canada Day Celebrations. Frank Kaweski ably hoisted the flag on our pole. This flagpole originally came from Expo ’86 and the Plaza of Nations. After singing O Canada many members then competed in the Canada Cup, and there was also an Open Draw available for others. Special thanks to Kathie Draeseke for being the Canada Cup convenor, and thanks also to Jan Miko for organising refreshments, as well as Team Spirit cheers/poems!

This year we had 8 teams compete in the Canada Cup. Here are the final results:

National Bowls Day Social & Open House

Refreshments, competitions and bowling on a beautiful May evening.Over 25 people celebrated National Bowls Day, many responding after a personal invitation at The Kitsilano Farmers’ Market. New bowlers enjoyed trying lawnbowling with coaching from club members, and had some wonderful shots. All ages were represented. Many thanks to Suzette and Wayne for a successful event!

Farmers’ Market Outreach

Kitsilano Farmers’ Market

Kitsilano Farmers’ Market is a new publicity venue for our club. This was was a venture for us to gauge interest for new members. The market was busy and bustling, and certainly there were a number of people wanting to find out more information about our club. Indeed, a couple even visited the clubhouse in the afternoon as a result of personal invitation, and they’re planning to attend the National Bowls Day Social next Saturday evening!

A Warm WPG Club Welcome!

WPG’s Best Kept Secret!

There’s nothing better than spending a Tuesday and Thursday evening bowling on our greens into the sunset at the end of a sunny day. 7pm is game time, so plan to arrive by 6:45pm to join in the draw for a relaxing time of good company and great bowling.

Opening Day

Beautiful weather greeted over 50 Bowling and Croquet players for our Official Opening Day. June Wing threw the ceremonial First Bowl, and an enjoyable afternoon was appreciated by all.
