Bentley Park Bulletin
Swan Village Bowling Club
Christmas and New Year are finally over and participation is back to more normal numbers. Illness has affected us over the period, and we wish everyone a speedy recovery and a good new year. Weather has been variable with some quite cold nights even following hot days. It is always advisable to bring a jacket or pullover to night sessions.
Following a request from a member and some subsequent expressions of interest, the club will be trying an early morning session at 8:00am on a Friday morning. This is primarily intended to be for novices to gain experience, but all are welcome to attend. Actual format will be decided depending on numbers attending. Non-members are welcome to try out for a few weeks.
Heather Williams has already booked the Pines Restaurant for our first outing in March. Keep your eyes on the notice board for this and the first gala day which is also in March.

Bentley Park Residents’ Council
The Council met in January to discuss and plan the way forward in 2023. Council members will now be more recognisable at functions with HiVis vests and our aim is to more visible and supportive to residents. We are seeking input from residents on the type of guest speakers they would like to see at our residents’ meetings and looking for volunteers for our four sub groups: environment, resident connect, transport and infrastructure.
We have some exciting programs coming up in February in relation to food waste that initially will involve 100 residents that are interested in participating. Details will be in your letterbox, soon.
We look forward to seeing as many residents as possible at our coffee mornings every second month.
When: 9:30am Tuesday 21st February

Board Game Group
Welcome back to all who love board games. We are back on again every first and third Friday of the month, starting on February the 3rd at 6:00pm and finishing up at 9:00pm, or when we have had enough. We are a fun group who enjoys lots of laughs and who quite often flaunt the game rules but it’s always a great night. We hope to see some new members this year.

Where: The Club, Leisure Precinct Contact: Sandie Holmes on 0459 981 822
Writing Group
SwanCare’s Writing Group returns to business on Thursday the 9th of February. We have room for a couple more regular members to attend, but numbers are strictly limited. If anyone is interested in working through a family history, providing information regarding earlier times around here for community interest, writing articles for their artistic, sporting club or letters to the editor, please contact us as shown. Specific topics are written about and discussed for your benefit.
The State Library has accepted some of my articles as a Gift of Deed (donation), so it is not difficult for anyone else either and the Library Board is very hopeful that other members of the community will also provide some donations for the benefit of future generations.
When: 11:00am to 12:00pm Thursdays 9th & 23rd February
Where: The Club, Leisure Precinct
Contact: Shirley Barnes on 6250 0558
