Some reminders from the Bowls Section:
Bowlers Questionnaire: All Pennant Players have been invited to complete a survey form prepared by our Club Coach (Daniel). Thanks to those who have already responded. If you have not already completed and returned the form could you please do so as soon as possible.
Saturday and Midweek Pennant. We will shortly be required to indicate to GBR the number of teams our club wishes to enter in the Pennant Competitions in the 2019-2020 season. If you have not yet indicated your intentions on the sheets on the notice board we would appreciate this being done as soon as possible.
Payment of Membership fees The June 30 deadline is approaching for payment of membership dues, please assist the club by meeting this timeline.
Volunteer Forms Volunteers are an integral part of our club's operations. Every offer of assistance allows the workload to be shared more equitably. If you haven't already done so there are some spare forms near the return box at the front of the club rooms.

Gold Coast Action
Looks like they got there .... to the Aussie Open
At Broadbeach, in the Men's Singles, Terry Hilton made it to the 1st knockout round but lost by 1 shot, 21/20
At Helensvale, Terry Hilton and Ben Lombadi played a local Helensvale team on super fast greens. Close game, 9 all after 13 ends but were outplayed in last four ends. Lost 19/9. They made it to the last 32 of the over 60's Pairs.
OUT and ABOUT - Fraser Island

Rain forest growing in sand.

Not only a highway, but an airstrip too. (for those who are interested, they are Gippsland Aeronautics Airvans. Ed)

Saw a few of these.

Cheers, Sandra and Daryl
