Barnack Bowls Silver Jubilee
Barnack club members arrived at the club to be welcomed by a Jazz band playing and a glass of Pimm’s on a warm Saturday afternoon to help Celebrate the clubs 25th Birthday, the afternoon was designed to repay the loyalty of all club members for their continued support for 25 years since it was formed by a group of villages all those years ago, with many still active members today.
Barnack still has one of the most admired greens and locations within the area.
Although the membership has grown and covers a wider area than just the Village today the friendly and competitive spirt is still strong within the club, members and their families and children enjoyed a range of fun fete style games from skittles to target golf and bowls and other games whilst enjoying BBQ sausages followed by strawberries and cream.
The last few weeks have been very busy for all at the club with another successful mid-week Gala when the Club hosted 24 teams from various clubs in the wider Stamford area. Another enjoyable Garden buffet lunch was hosted by the Clubs Chairman and wife, and the positive results of our recruitment campaign for new members which has resulted in over 12 new members to the club so far this season.
Barnack Bowls Club is looking forward to another successful 25 years, we might not all still be here, but the club hope’s to grow and go from strength to strength continuing to play an active roll in the local community and as members of the Stamford Bowls league & Peterborough Bowls league, the Club still welcomes new members.
