WANGARATTA Bowls Club has thrown open the doors and their greens to the community for their A1 Tyrepower Barefoot Bowls Challenge.

The community event commenced on Wednesday, February 6, and will run weekly for four weeks, concluding on Wednesday, February 26.

With the first bowl from 6.15pm, teams of three players will enjoy a social fun bowl and learn some new skills from the club’s coaches.

The weekly entry fee of $10 covers equipment hire of the club’s bowls, and a barbecue dinner held between the two one-hour games.

There will be weekly prizes for the winners and runners up, as well as other prizes to be won, such as weekly meat trays.

Participants are asked to wear flat-soled sports shoes or thongs – or even go barefoot as the name suggests.

This program is only being run throughout February, so don’t miss out on your chance to get some mates or co-workers together and have some fun on the greens.

The next barefoot bowls night will be held on Thursday, February 13.

To register your interest for barefoot bowls at Wangaratta Bowls Club, contact Greg McDonald on 0409 595 452.
