Peter McFalls was rec- ognized by the O.L.B.A for his over 20 years of work with the Exeter Lawn Bowling Club. It is the first year for the award which allows each O.L.B.A club to recognize their most outstanding member, and was pre- sented to McFalls April 23 at the annual meeting of Ontario Lawn Bowls in Brampton. McFalls has been a vol- unteer with the Exeter club for over 20 years at every level, including president twice, after first taking up the sport in 1967. In 1982, he began orga- nizing and running tour- naments in Exeter, arranging sponsorship, maintenance and prizes. He has also arranged for several upgrades to the club in the past two decades. McFalls said he didn't know his son Shawn had nominated him for the award.

McFalls said the club is doing well with a list of around a dozen new potential members, and its first weekend of the season will be May 24. In his years of service, McFalls said he never thought about being rec- ognized. " It is rewarding to be nominated, and then selected is even greater."
