Orange City Women's Bowls Club along with Orange City Men's Club were proud to introduce the Cherry Blossom Open Pairs Tournament on Saturday. The two-day event over the weekend attracted twenty-four teams from across the region.

The winners of the tournament were Ron Coyte and Bernie Diduszko from Orange. Second place went to Doug Miller and Matt Parker from Parkes, and third place went to Mary and Ian Carr from Orange.

Saturday's best card went to Ian and Mary Carr, and Sunday's best card went to Tony Wilson and Chris Brand.

Thanks go to Penhall Funeral Services Orange, the Orange City Women's Bowling Club and the Orange City Men's Bowling Club for sponsoring the event. A big thank you to the umpires and all the volunteers for their valued support.

Last Tuesday, bowlers enjoyed the ever-popular Turn Around Triples. The winners on the day drawn from the cards were Kristeen Oates, Pat Nokes and Eileen Swain. Lucky losers also drawn from the cards were Margo Fairbairn, Laurel Duffy and Sue Clinghan.

In the raffles, Jenny Lowe won the Club Voucher. Kay Kennedy won the first prize envelope, and Chris Brand won the second and third prize envelopes.

Fiesta Day is almost here! There will be lucky door prizes, raffles, Jenny Lennon's perpetual Spider and Dawn Sutton's lucky coin. Thank you to Live Better's Carer Gateway, who will be sponsoring the game prize money on the day.

Thinking of those on our sick and or injured list and wishing you all a speedy recovery.

Happy bowling everyone!
