A lovely dry summer day where there was full sun in the afternoon combine with the red and white of Canada Day led to some great bowling with some amazing games. Only one team won both of their games, and they were the overall winners: Mark Dix-Cooper, George Bangham and Melanie Klintworth. Second place went to Kathie Draeseke, David Crowe, and Ian Cumming, closely followed by Elaine Rolston, Susan Boyd, and Sue Dix-Cooper in third place. Many thanks to all the very many volunteers who contributed their time and effort to the success of this wonderful Canada Day event, and thank you to convenor Jan Miko.

Here are the teams for the Canada Cup. Please arrive early (before 9:45am) to set up. Thank you!

Despite a rather rainy forecast, the day dawned fair and dry, and then the sun came out for a wonderful day’s bowling. Special thanks to Kathie Draeseke for convening, and for those who helped in the kitchen. Here are the final results:

As the following photos show, this was a popular event much appreciated by many! Thank you to all volunteers who helped make this such a success.

45 people attended a most informative talk presented by Linda Yauk on behalf of Seniors First BC. The biggest takeaway is to be careful with any phone calls, texts, email messages etc. which seem out of place or are soliciting personal information. Afterward we were treated to tea, coffee and sweets during which there was much fruitful discussion.

About 42 people attended, and a great time was enjoyed by all. Many thanks to Heather and everyone else who contributed to the success of this event! The photos really deserve good captions!

Mark Dix-Cooper, Ruth Mennie and Sue Dix-Cooper were playing on the WPG team in the Inter-club Triples league at Pacific Indoor Lawn Bowling club and won the silver medal in the B level playoffs.  

There were 8 teams in the B level playoffs and they had to play the team that won the gold medal. They had a very exciting game which ended with the New West team winning 15-13.  If they had won the game they would have earned the Gold medal! Well bowled!!

Here is a preliminary 2024 schedule:

WPG had SIX teams competing, and good competition was enjoyed by all. Here are the final results:
