Member for Barker Tony Pasin has congratulated the Penola Bowling Club on their successful application to Round 8 of the Stronger Communities Program.<\/p>\n
The club received $4200 to remove lawn area of the northern end of bowling green and pave the surrounds of the bowling green to minimise water usage and improve safety for members.<\/p>\n
Mr Pasin said he was pleased that the Penola Bowling Club could take advantage of the now defunct but highly successful funding program.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe former Coalition Government focused heavily on local capacity building by targeting funding to grassroots community and sporting organisations like the Penola Bowling Club, enabling them to improve their facilities because well maintained facilities contribute to stronger clubs which in turn contribute to making even stronger communities,\u201d Mr Pasin said.<\/p>\n
Community-led projects across Barker have shared in $1.2million including the Mount Gambier and Naracoorte Bowling Clubs, Penola Men\u2019s Shed, Millicent United Soccer Club and Lucindale Karting Club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
