Past President Eileen Tooley 2013-2014
Welcome to the President's page for 2013 which is our 90th Anniversary year.
I must say that I am proud to be President for the next two years and will do my best to make sure this Club is a happy and friendly Club.
We have a lot of new members this year and I would like you all to feel part of the team. This is agreat Club so lets all work to keep it that way.
We have two very good Club Captains Penny Jones and Ned Waddock, with Vice Captains Barbara Reardon, Steve Soames and Ted Love.
May I ask you all to support the Men's and Ladies' Committees.
A big thanks must go to Janet Whitfield our Club Secretary, David Jackson and Penny Jones, Match Secretaries for all their work in sorting out our Fixture Book, and Steve Mead for printing the books.
Thank you to all who turned out for our social skittles evening held at the RAFA Club ably organised by Terry Rexstrew and David Parker, and to Mary Ray for selling raffle tickets.
My congratulations to the Ladies for staying up in Division One of the C & M League and to the men for keeping their position in Division One and Three of the Littlehampton Gazette League.
Bognor Regis bowls club was formed in 1913 and we hope to celebrate this event with a number of events throughout 2013, mainly by the men inviting London & Southern Counties Bowling Association, Sussex County Bowling Association and Home Counties Bowling Association to play against them in a number of matches which were all followed by a buffet.
On September 21st we will be celebrating our 90th..anniversary by holding a Fun Afternoon and members are being asked to wear clothing appropriate to the era.
The day will end with a BBQ held at Bognor Golf Club in the evening.
Our Presentation Evening Dinner Dance to be held 8th November will also be held at Bognor Golf Club. When I look forward to meeting you all in your finery.
I am sure that the 2014 season will be another good year for Bognor Regis Bowls Club with the Ladies and Men securing their League Positions once again, and some great friendly club matches to be enjoyed by all members.
As your President for the next two seasons I wish you all good bowling.
Eileen Tooley
