Elora lawn bowling club hosts tournament

The Graham Giddy Funeral Homes tournament was held at the Elora Rocks Lawn Bowling Club greens on Aug. 15. Teams from Milton, Burlington, Beeton, Arthur, Monora (Orangeville), Elmira, Guelph, New Hamburg, Heritage (Kitchener) and the host club Elora participated.

It was a full house with both greens filled to capacity for the Women’s Pairs/Mixed Pairs event.  Under sunny skies the competition was very keen and after the three games were played, the Milton Team of Lynda and Bob Miller emerged the victors.

 The host club provided the bowlers with early morning snacks, lunch and deserts in the afternoon.  The draw master and overseer for the day was Peter Israel.

There were many favorable comments throughout the day complimenting the hosts on an enjoyable tournament.

 “The fact the tournament was full and attracted 26 teams from as far away as Burlington and surrounding areas is a tremendous testament to the host club.  Elora is a club that believes in providing a professionally-run tournament that addresses the true objectives of the sport – good competition, good fellowship, and good spirit.  A job very well done – thanks,” said Guelph bowler Warren Gregg in an email to organizers.
