Bowling for hospice

Bowls Warkworth raised $1074 for hospice at its annual charity tournament last month, a result that far exceeded last year’s effort thanks to the addition of some extra challenges and penalties for the players. The event was sponsored by Timberworld and Leigh Fisheries. Mahurangi East bowler Bruce McArthy (pictured) won the tastiest prize by winning the corner-to-corner challenge. Over the last five years the club’s annual tournaments have raised more than $4000 to support Warkworth Wellsford Hospice’s community palliative care services.
