The green is re-opening
Just a reminder that the green will be opening on Sunday March 22nd. Our first Sunday Social bowling session will also be taking place on that day, 2-4 pm.
​
Dave Robinson will be there to help anyone who has not attended a social bowling session before. There will also probably be other more seasoned bowlers there to help with any questions you may have.
​
Membership fees must have been paid before you can play on the green. I will be at the green on Sunday for anyone unable to pay by bank transfer. Cash and cheques (made payable to Boston Spa Bowling Club) will be accepted.
£75 full playing member
£5 non playing social member
​
Also, please remember that we have had to raise the price of Tea, Coffee and cans to cover the rising cost of those items.

Sunday Social Bowling
The green re-opened with our first Sunday Social Bowling session that went down very well, with 18 players turning up and having their first roll-up of the season.
There were a few achy arms, and a few misplaced woods but everybody seemed to be enjoying it.
We even had a few spectators to cheer us on.
I am hopeful that this session will remain popular and become part of the social bowling schedule for the foreseeable future, especially for those who can’t make the usual regular morning sessions.
Next session is at the same time (2pm) next Sunday.
Hope to see you there.
Cheers
Dave Robinson
Club Maintenance volunteers.
Every year we maintain our own club buildings and surrounds, and we are always looking to members coming along and helping with all the various jobs that need doing around the green.
These jobs are many and varied and to do them we need volunteers to go on a rota, with a few special projects on an ad-hoc basis.
Each new year we start a weekly rota and try to spread out the load as fairly as possible among the volunteers.
Every year we are looking for two or three people each week to clear gutters, cut the grass on the verges (but not the green, that’s for the Green Keeper to do), hedge trimming, and do general clearing up and odd tasks as required.
We have some volunteers from this year who we hope to keep for next year, but are looking to swell those numbers with some new ones.
If you wish to help the club in these essential tasks, then please let me know. I can then have you put on the rota for next year. Hopefully if we get enough volunteers, it may only be every 4-5 weeks that you would be required.
Your reward? Free tea and biscuit, and usually a bit of a chat, meet other members who you may not know, but most of all, contributing to a well maintained club.
If you have any specific skills (Carpenter, Painter etc) could you let us know, as we may be able to take advantage of those skills.
I hope to hear from many of you.
​
The maintenance day is Tuesdays from around 9:30am onwards for a couple of hours.
