GLORIOUS sunshine welcomed back 72 bowlers to the Busselton club for the Patron and Vice Patron sponsored bowling day.
Due to rain the prior weekend causing the open day to be moved, President Richard Pennington took the opportunity to welcome back all members for the 2014/2015 season.
In particular, Pennington congratulated the committee for their strong contribution to the club over winter.
On the day 18 teams played a social game of mixed fours with the teams being drawn at random.
Two games of 13 ends were played and enjoyed by all.
In the end, only four teams won two games with the triumphant party of Syd Rogers, Jan Morgan, Bronte Shreeve and Val Rushforth taking the prime position with two wins plus 19.
Runner up position went to Wally Dawson, Bill Sawkins, Raelene Basten and Brian Rice with two games plus 13, closely followed in third position by Helen Paganoni, Roger Badans, Mike Godsell and Bev Adams with two wins plus six.
Fourth place was awarded to Gail Botting, Lee Burgin, Ron Wood and Joan Henderson with two wins plus four.
Prizes were presented to all winning teams by sponsors of the event.
