The kitchen was admirable in preparing beau ful sandwiches for the many hungry players and guest. There were many players and visitors from as far away as Cooma. Many commented on our beau ful Club and several people commented that they hadn’t been to Tuross Head before and thought it was a very a rac ve town. Being able to run a Regional event such as this benefits the whole town. We congratulate our Fours who enjoyed the opportunity to play in the event and we witnessed some very good bowls being played.
