It has been a glorious summer of sunny days, and our Charity Day on September 3rd was no exception.

At the same time as hosting the BC Provincial Senior Triples’ Tournament during the day, WVLBC was home to the Women’s V&D Novice Singles’ in the evenings.

In preparation for hosting the BC Provincial Senior Triples’ Tournament, Howie, Drew and Radka cut the greens, Derek painted the benches, Pat and Sue bought out Costco for the catering and prepped the night before.

West Vancouver Lawn Bowling Club has arrived!!!   Not only did West Vancouver mayor Michael Smith have his 5th Annual Mayor’s Tournament here in July, but two wonderful young men, Marc and Peter, put on Midsummer’s Green Lawn Bowling, their own fifth charity tournament.

July 14th was date of our mid-summer fundraiser, the brainchild of our hard working president Myrle.

Many of you know that the annual Mason and Friends Charity Day has raised thousands of dollars for the YMCA to send children to summer camps. Last year at Tim’s event, Grace of the YMCA floated the idea of bringing a group of newcomers to our club, as part of a program that introduced newcomers to Canada to various Canadian sports and activities.

As is our long-standing tradition, West Vancouver played North Vancouver July 7th at the North Vancouver club in the women’s Rosebowl and the men’s Leyland Cup.

Jim, Alice, Tim and Sue all took part in the Men’s and Women’s Provincial Fours the weekend of June 23rd at North Vancouver.

What a fabulous day ! Thirty teams of between four and six people, all dressed in Hawaiian theme, all having a blast and raising money for worthy causes.

What a fabulous day! The weather could not have been better and we could not have been luckier than having the Lions cater the barbeque for us.

Here we are in mid April with outdoor bowling yet to start and already the club has celebrated its second social event, thanks to our president Myrle.

It was a fantastic weekend of Bowls at the Pacific Indoor Bowls Club, as the West Van LBC had 4 members playing in the 2018 BC Indoor Triples.

Lynn, Alice, Brian, Jim and I had a great time at the Pacific Indoor Bowls Club, playing in the Provincial Indoor Mixed Pairs.

Significant congratulations to our President, Myrle, for a really great evening.
