Celebrates 90 years of bowling
First Opening Day | Oct, 1926
Wanaka Bowling Green | 2017
The Wanaka Bowling Club will celebrate 90 years of bowling on Saturday 14 October with a dinner at the clubhouse.
The club has an outdoor green and a spacious clubhouse as well as an indoor stadium. These facilities allow the club to operate all year round. In the summer there are men’s and women’s club days, as well as regular club events, club and centre championships events and inter-club events.
The guest speaker will be current NZ representative, Mike Kernaghan, who is regarded as one of New Zealand’s finest bowlers. Mike will also present a bowling clinic for members on Sunday morning. Established in 1926 on land donated by James Faulks, the Wanaka Bowling Club is currently the largest bowling club in Otago, with a membership of about 180, and growing. It is the ninth largest bowling club in NZ and is regarded as being amongst the most progressive bowling clubs in NZ.
