Halloween update
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to those that came to our Halloween event last night- it was a huge success and Everyone seemed to have a fab time.
The fancy dress was quite interesting especially with our surprise visitor Mr Steven Lillwall who may I add managed to frighten a few people! Pete did a fantastic job with the entertainment as always and the apple bobbing was a sure hit with the kids and adults alike! We managed to raise a few pound short of £300 which is fantastic and is all profit to our club. I am hoping to hold a Christmas party, date and entertainment to be confirmed this week. Anyway if I don't see you before, we will see most of you at our presentation night. I shall kindly ask Keith to post some pictures from last night on our website to give you all a laugh! Thanks again everyone. Kind regards Kate Night looked fun but scary, Big thanks to Kate - Keith |

Ladies County v Dudley & District 16th June
Unfortunately a defeat against Dudley and district in the ladies county, however it was an enjoyable day had by all and I personally would like to thank those people that continually help and support, not only on the day but in preparing the green and our wonderful facilities as it is always praised by all that play on there. Without these people such events would not be possible. We raised £140 that all goes into the bowls funds, which is great. Warwickshire are not out of the running a yet either, we just need to go into the next game with a positive attitude and get a big plus on Coventry. Fingers crossed we can do it. Kate
