The Brussels Lawn Bowling
Club started the 1996 season with a
rained out tournament Thursday,
June 6. The players had all arrived
when the rains came down so it
turned into a euchre tournament.
The tournament was sponsored by
the CIBC and J. L. McCutcheon
Motors Ltd.
Winners of the euchre were:
ladies, first, Mary Higgins, Mit-
chell; second, Mickey Kindersma,
Stratford; third, Ken Barbour,
Brussels, playing as a lady; fourth,
Gladys Cook, Stratford; fifth,
Verna Rathwell, Atwood; consola-
tion, Vera Lindner, Atwood; men's
high, John Kindersma, Stratford;
second, Ray Buchanan, Atwood;
third, Lloyd Cook, Stratford;
fourth, Jim Coultes; consolation,
Joe White, Palmerston.
A prize for lowest combined
score for one team of bowlers went
to Vera Lindner and Jack
Broughton.
A casserole and salad supper was
served by the women of the
Brussels Club. Even the weather
can't stop lawn bowlers from
enjoying their afternoon.
Most clubs report a late start in
bowling due to the weather and
problems with winterkill on the
greens. Brussels is planning a
'Tetley Tea' sponsored "Round
Robin" when they will entertain as
many new bowlers as possible. It
will be a fun afternoon.
