St Vincent De Paul Fund Raiser

In November the Greenwood branch held a very successful fundraiser at our Club. Vinnies provide financial and other assistance to needy residents in the Greenwood, Girrawheen and Koondoola areas.

Society members invited relatives and friends to visit our Club for an evening of bowls followed by fellowship. Each visitor paid an entry fee and brought a plate of finger food to share. There were about 90 people present, including 60-70 bowlers who withstood the icy winds. Bowls ran from 5 to 6.30pm followed by fellowship, which included silent auctions and a raffle. The evening concluded by 8.30pm.

Many favourable comments were heard about our Club thanks to our great bar staff and the six very willing volunteers, pictures alongside. From left to right: Jim and Helen Ironside, Kevin McKersey, Ken Giles, Tony Friedlieb and almost permanent volunteer Alex Third.
