On Saturday, we held our Ladies President's Day and what a fabulous day it was! Ambient temperatures, a gentle breeze and two rinks of laughing, giggling women. The frivolity was most probably due to the 'champagne starter' offered upon arrival!

Teams travelled from Young, West Wyalong, Cootamundra Country, Cootamundra Ex Services, Boorowa, Forbes, Harden, Canowindra and Cowra.
Also in attendance were our stalwarts Ray Walter, Martin Betcher, Warren Paine and Barry Bradkte who wholeheartedly support our each and every endeavour, as do many other of our male counterparts who were unfortunately unable to attend on the day.
Our heartfelt thanks goes out to Grenfell Club Limited for an amazing luncheon; to Club Manager Bianca Hughes for her ongoing support; to Peter Keppie for the best greens in the West and to Laurel who worked tirelessly to keep us hydrated.
Special thanks also to our ladies Executive Committee - Courtney, Rosemary, Sue, Sandy and Kathy for their contributions to the success of this awesome day; IGA Grenfell for your kind donation of a fruit box for our raffle and to each of our ladies who also took it upon themselves to supply their own donations.
Last but not least, to Lynn and Roberta from Lawn Bowls Accessories and Clothing, who travelled from Penrith and set up shop with a vast array of new and current bowls wear to keep our ladies looking fresh, colourful and up-to-date. The day began with champagne and savoury cheese/meat platters, then out onto the greens for two games of bowls.
During the games our bowlers were well looked after, as President Kathy and Sandy walked around with platters of chocolate coated strawberries, a cheese selection, biscuits and dips and the occasional run to the bar for those that were feeling a little 'dehydrated'! This was followed with a hot lunch, dessert and lots of raffle prizes.
All in all, a fantastic day with lovely people. We hope you all had a great day and look forward to seeing you all again, next year. Who knows what theme our clever committee will surprise us with next time!
