Special Event Days


2009

    

  January 6 2009

  Late December - early January 2009 Qualicum Beach had over two feet of snow.  This far exceeded our  yearly average of under six inches.

 The first picture shows the entrance to our club house. The following six photos are of what occurred inside  on the night of January 6th.  

 We had a dinner followed by indoor and short mat bowling.  It was an evening of great fun and enjoyment!! 

 Thanks, Carol and Darryl for organizing the event.

        September 1
             Labour Day                  Work clothes and fun bowling


         

We had a wonderful day of fun, socializing and bowling. 

Lunch included a "special desert" which was enjoyed by all.

Two games were played, one in the morning and one after lunch.

As can be seen above, we played in both directions at the same time which

provided lots of challenges and laughter.
