One of the club’s members, Travis Appleton, participated in the Lilydale Bowls Club John Snell Club Triples Championship on Sunday with his son and new Burras Member, Lawson, and another young club member, April.
All funds raised from the event go towards the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation, “Fly for the Kids”.
The event first started about five years ago with a Charity Day to help raise funds for Lawson who was diagnosed with leukaemia.
Since then, it has broadened to support this worthwhile foundation.
On Sunday, Lawson was able to bowl in his first official game and his parents donated money towards the fundraising event.
The popular Bingo Night’s will be held on Wednesdays from 6.30pm during October with many fun and enjoyable bingo games “with a difference”, including music bingo.
The Barefoot Bowls Jack Attack Triples Competition will commence on Wednesday 5 November from 6.45pm.
This competition is mainly for beginners and new bowlers and interested people are encouraged to contact Glenys on 0473 653 137 to find out more details and enter a team of three.
