Off season work and socials in full swing

It was a shame that we had to cancel our new Friday night game with Cam but the weather was very kind for our Closing Gala at the end of September.

Despite the previous day's being damp and grey the sun shone on our teams of Tetbury bowlers making the most of their last outdoor game this year. We began with a spider, with the money raised going towards the Tetbury Christmas Lights fund and ended with a delicious buffet provided by the captains.

We may have stopped bowling but work goes on up at the club. The 'men in hats' are replacing the final edge of slabs around the green, hard and heavy work and they are real troopers, so many thanks to those involved. Exciting plans are currently being finalised for our kitchen refurbishment, due to start in January.

The end of October is our AGM where business is discussed and our new committee voted in, more of that next month.

On the social side we are preparing for our Presentation Evening where all prize winners are presented with their cups. There's a full three course meal prepared by members and the bar will be open so that's definitely an event to look forward to.

Once again, this year Friday nights are social nights and so far, we've played bingo with the jackpot of £250 still to be won, enjoyed a quiz by quizmaster Les Brice and had fun with 'Play Your Cards Rights'. Our Sunday morning bacon roll and coffee is increasingly popular with both players and social members, do pop along for a chat if you'd like to find out more.
