The Moore Park Beach Bowls Club hosted the 44th Golden Sands Carnival with an entry of 20 women’s teams on June 7, a cool winter’s day. Having cancelled the carnival in 2020 and 2021, it was a welcome change to again host these games. Home teams were joined by members of district and intrastate clubs for a three-game tournament. Congratulations to the following teams with money paid on both greens:

Ray Townson Green

  • 1st Verna McMah, Wendy Campbell, Lorelle Hofstetter
  • 2nd Tulu Chippendale, Leslie Burnell Jones, Judy Nowell
  • 3rd Deb Handley, Carolyn Campbell, Shirley Nichols
  • 4th Iris Dickson, Sue Bond, Grietje Kitson
  • 5th Terry Merritt, Jenny Hearn, Bev Watt

Norm Townson Green

  • 1st Dawn Franklin, Betty Klaassen, Jacki Noll
  • 2nd Helen Morton, Tania Adams, Lyn Miles
  • 3rd Robyn Chandler, Barbara Trudgian, Faye Constable
  • 4th Terry Heath, Jess Cannon, Kerry Gallagher
  • 5th Lyn Donaldson, Bev Parker, Josephine Mitzi

The day was a great success but would not have been so without our sponsors, Des Allen & Co Funerals and Jacki Noll. Our volunteers contributed their invaluable time and energy and our bistro delivered an assortment of mouth-watering morsels for morning and afternoon tea with cold meats and salad to satisfy those hunger cravings at lunchtime.
