It was an exciting day at the club on Saturday as we hosted our final short mat tournament of the season! With an expanded draw bringing 10 teams into action across 13 rounds of play- there were many exciting games in our short style game format on the road to the final. Congratulations to Ken and Charmaine Cameron- who captured the final tourney win of the year with a 4-3 victory over Gary and Janice Marshall. In the 3rd place game- it was the team of Lowell Goulden and Brenda Reesor who topped our January and February Champions John and Ann Marie Siteman 4-2 to take out the 3rd place envelope. The consolation prize went to Paul Camilleri and Karen Harrie…… again (as they won the random draw in all 3 monthly events)! Thanks to Ann Marie and John for hosting another great event. Looking forward to having even more competition and fun in these tournaments next indoor season!

It was another great day of short mat lawn bowls today as we hosted our second “Power Pairs” tournament or as we unofficially called it- the “Ann Marie Siteman’s Birthday Tournament”! Congrats to Ann Marie and John Siteman who defended their title from last month with a nail biting 3-2 win over Ken and Charmaine Cameron (which included two replayed ends and the final end of the championship game finishing up with a tied end!). In the 3rd Place Game, it was Gary and Janice Marshall who took out a 3-2 comeback victory over Paul Camilleri and Karen Harrie (who ended up also winning our consolation price for the day). Thanks Ann Marie for organizing another fun day of bowls. If you’re wanting to get into one last short mat tournament before the end of the indoor season and the start of the outdoor season- make sure to watch out for the notice when the date gets confirmed.
It was a fun time this afternoon as we had a fun Groundhog Day Midwinter Party. Hosted by Ann Marie and John Siteman- everyone was encouraged to wear their best summery colours as we’d play some games and enjoy some fruit punch and ice cream. Thanks to everyone for coming out! Stay tuned as we’ll have our next social event (in addition to the short mat tournament on the 15th) coming soon!
What a fun day at the club today as we hosted our 1st Annual DLBC Power Pairs Short Mat Tournament! With the quick style format (4 end 3 bowl pairs matches)- there were lots of nail biting games coming right down to the last bowl.
Congrats to John and Ann Marie Siteman on picking up the title in a 5-2 win over Gary and Janice Marshall in the final. In the 3rd Place Game, it was Ken and Charmaine Cameron who defeated Brenda Reesor and Lowell Goulden 4-1 to take out the final spot on the podium. The lucky draw prize (for any team outside the top 3) went to Paul Camilleri and Karen Harrie. Thanks to Ann Marie for organizing the event, Jan for helping us with coffee and treats and to everyone who took part in our first indoor lawn bowls tourney in Nova Scotia (as far as we know!). Happy New Year everyone! Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday for our New Year’s Day Member Social for some food and fun to ring in 2025. We even had a few bowls rolled outdoors for the first time in multiple years now (as usually we’ve had snow cover on New Year’s Day). Special thanks to Mayor Andy Fillmore and Becky Kent - Councillor District 3 for visiting and chatting with members. Special thanks to Vicki Balcom and our kitchen crew for putting on a great event! Our winter schedule kicks back up after the holiday break with short mat leagues beginning next week at the clubhouse.
It was a fun afternoon at the club today as we held our first sessions of Short Mat for the season!

Hope to see you all out playing this short mat season!
