Paeroa Bowling Club celebrated its 120th birthday on April 6. It is worthy to note that this was 120 consecutive years. An awesome achievement for the club and one which we are very proud of. There were around 50 invited guests at the event, and Margaret Henderson cut the cake. Margaret’s history with the club goes back around 50 years. Invited guests were not only current members but older members from the past as well. Our patron and current member, John Pullan, gave a speech on the history of the club and president Kevin Lockley spoke of the club’s past, present and future. A most delicious meal was enjoyed by all followed by dessert and cake. This was a fabulous night, celebrating a wonderful milestone and truly enjoyed by all.
The history of this club is rich and full of great people, playing a great game at a great club.
