It wasn’t a Bingo Night but we did have a Full House!

Richard Ponting from Beach Haven Bowls Club

Quiz Night on Friday 19th was our first major event following the COVID upheavals and turned out to be a major success with the largest turnout we have ever had to such an event. Over eighty participants braved the chilly evening to make the event a highly enjoyable one for all concerned.

Our Quiz Master, Dave Hilson, very ably presided over the evening in great style considerable patience and good humour despite the usual Beach Haven banter and the odd challenge to answers. Thanks Dave, you did a wonderful job.

Our sincere thanks also go to all participants for supporting the Club, especially the large group based on the Ray White, Beach Haven Office who also donated the Auction Prize. As in all contests there are winners and losers and also those who came oh, so close. One such team, “I Knew That!” did not quite know enough but pushed the eventual winners very hard to finish just three points behind “Bowled Over” who took out the top prize.

Watch this space for details of our next Social event planned for July.

Regards,

The Badger
