A fine morning on Sunday bought 30 bowlers out to play. The good bowlers with resters were Graeme West, Brian Asimus and Barry Anderson. The winning rink went to Cliff Nelson and Russell Hodge. The losing rink went to Barry Anderson and Graeme West who were defeated by the winners. The stipes are looking into how the same card came out twice.
