BOOLARRA BOWLING CLUB BIAS
Issue No. 2
Welcome members to the 2017-18 season. Pennant begins Sat. 14th October. Division 3 plays off against Morwell(2) at Morwell and Division 6 will know once their draw is finalised. We have a small club membership of playing members this season with approx. 26 people available to play. So stay healthy & fit! Welcome to new members Hans Kasbach & Alex Stevenson and welcome back Geoff Dunkley. Welcome to our social members.
UNIFORM/SUNSMART
With the start of the season comes the warmer weather. Don’t forget to sip, slop, slap before & while you play. Players are reminded that correct club uniform must be worn at all pennant/club matches right down from the hat on your head to your socks & footwear. Please ensure your choice of uniform includes the correct white or blue bowls pants/socks/shirt/hat. It was great to see members make uniform purchases with Travelling Jack. Can’t wait to see those legs in your new blue shorts, Colby!
FEES
Thanks to the members who have paid their subs. in time to begin Pennant. If you haven’t already, please catch up with Abbas or pay
direct.
AROUND THE CLUB
A few club members have been working around the club and green. We need to share this load. Please indicate on sheet on noticeboard where YOU can help.
Thank you to those who have already helped out.
SMOKING LAWS
On August 1st 2017 under the Tobacco Amendment Act smoking is now banned in all outdoor dining areas when food is available for consumption as well as being prohibited in all enclosed workplaces and certain public spaces where members of the public gather and may be exposed to second-hand smoke. You will have noticed some new signs placed around our outdoor area. It would be most appreciated if you could observe this request. We have members working in the enclosed bar area which leads into our kitchen and we also have members enjoying our facilities for practice/play and a quiet drink. An undercover area is provided for those who enjoy a smoke. Thank you for using it. The club wishes to be inclusive of all people so if you have any suggestions to improve the smoking area please see Bob or Roz.
CLUB ETIQUETTE
