2026 St Patrick's Day Tournament

Last year we had to cancel the St Patrick’s Day Tournament because of wind and rain. This year it was in the high 80’s and we shortened the game to 10 ends to avoid melted bowlers out on the Green.

We had 24 bowlers out there, many wearing green, of course.

In first place was Bruce Rolland (skip), Pam Dempsey (second), and Wilma Rolland (lead). With the same spread and coming in second were Mark Johnston (skip), Bonnie Johnston (second), and Chris Williams (lead). And, coming in third were Jim (JB) Brewer (skip), Janet Johnson (second), and James Chang (lead).

2025 Anniversary Game and Tacos June 12

We celebrated our 60th anniversary with a tournament and tacos. We had a great turnout, requiring SEVEN rinks! Winners were Richard Goodwin (rink and overall), Jim (JB) Brewer, Bonnie Johnston, Steve Pickell, Chris Williams, Marilyn Garland, and Topher Gayle. The game was short - 10 ends - to make sure there was time for tacos. Our tournament team (Gerry Macintosh, Bruce Rolland, and Kevin Johnson) made this a fun event, and designed it to allow for any number of bowlers, with a yardstick cut-throat. One rink went to OT with a 3-way tie.

After the tournament, Bruce Rolland handed out the prize money and attendees were greeted with a wonderful aroma and rows of crock pots full of taco fillings. In charge of creating the lunch were Pam Dempsey and Marilyn McKeever.

Thanks to all!

2024 Independence Day Tournament

Because of the heat, we started early and kept it to 10 ends. We had 24 bowlers making 8 teams on 4 rinks. The day began warm with a gentle breeze - perfect bowling weather. But it wasn't quite your usual game.

Scoring was done at 3 spots:
1. Where the Jack was - scoring like usual
2. Closest to the red golf ball - add 1 points
3. Closest to the blue golf ball - subtract 2
