Charity bowlers raise $1170
Ettalong Bowlers have raised $1170 at their charity bowls day on Sunday, February 18.
"We had over 40 bowlers turn up for the day," said organiser Mr Ken Dixon.
"Weather was fine and surprisingly we had a large number of first time bowlers including four from Brisbane Water Bridge Club.
"Marie Woody brought some family and neighbours to enjoy the game of lawn bowls for the first time.
"Cold meat and salad was served up after the game."
Mr Dixon said Ken Robinson won the spider and the winning rink was Fred Kelly, Jen Hibbert and Jack Fitz.
The scotch was won by Amanda Pughe.
The $1170 raised included a donation of $250 from the Bridges and Dewar families.
The money will go to help Central Coast Kids in Need.
The next charity bowls day will be held on Sunday, March 17.
Being St Patricks Day, all players will be encouraged to wear green.
"The best dressed will win a prize," said Mr DIxon.
