The Mahurangi East Bowling Club at Snells Beach held its four-week Autumn Twilight Social Bowls series last month with 28 teams participating in ideal conditions.

The winning team was The Schooners, with Annie Harris (skip), Daniel Smith, Geoff Olsen, Sheila Worrell and Lyall Lainchury.

The major sponsor was Barfoot & Thompson and their company team was placed seventh overall. Snells Beach Motors provide an E-Bike valued at over $2000, as part of the raffle prize, which was won by Snells Beach resident Ann Crawford.

The club has recently had its A green refurbished and, by next November, hopes to have a new surface on the B green.

This will allow greater participation at all social and tournament events coming up over the latter part of this year’s season.
