It all ends with a bang

Beachport team takes out Lucindale Bowls Club’s annual Prawn Day – the final event of the season

St the end of last month the Lucindale Bowls Club held its last tournament for the season. The annual Prawn Day was sponsored by TASCO Petroleum and DiGiorgio Family Wines with 10 teams turning up to play four games of 10 ends. At the end of the day there were no four game winners. Bordertown, Padthaway, Kingston, Naracoorte, Beachport, Robe and Mount Gambier RSL supported the day, which was a wonderful social event, played in perfect weather.

The Beachport team (pictured above) ended up winning on 85 shots from two Naracoorte teams. Ian Werchon (aka Plum), Lynette and Peter Smith alongside first season player Debra Butler were winners. Runners up on 84 were Colleen and Wayne Fox with Sandra and Ian Williams (pictured below left) who interestingly lost to the third team in the last game of the day. Third prizewinners were Don Mitton, Ann Barker, Bob Haggett and Bev King (pictured below right) on 83 shots. Bev even won the bowls bag donated by Caddyshack in the raffle, other prizes included a bag of prawns and a selection of wine.

Everyone enjoyed a fresh prawn salad, followed by the famous bowls trifles, as well as homemade scones and cream puffs, washed down with some DiGiorgio wines.
