Opening day returned as normal this year, with the President Alec welcoming the memebrs back to the club and intruducing the new members to the club, before throwing the jack and his wife Ellen throwing the first bowl. Then followed by our traditional team game of President versus Vice President, it is really just a fun day to get out on the green with all our friends and have a laugh and catchup whilst still trying win the exclusive prizes that the President and Vice President donate. The day was followed by a few beverages and some lovely food. On the whole a great welcome back to the club and it even stayed dry and warm. Wishing all our members the best for the coming season.
