The ladies of Umina Beach Women's Bowling Club voted unanimously on Tuesday 16th April, to make 

Susan Gaye Craske a Life Member.   

President Gale was delighted to present a very emotional Sue with her Life Member badge. 

Sue has been a member of our club since 2001 and has held the following positions:

Publicity Officer, Selector, Vice-President, President, Delegate to CCDWBA and Secretary, a position she has held since 2017.  She is also a National Umpire and Coach.   Sue has given outstanding service to our club and she justly deserves to be a Life Member.

       

                CONGRATULATIONS SUE

PRESIDENT GALE'S SPECIAL DAY

 

Umina Beach Women's Bowling Club celebrated President Gale's term as President with a Special Day on Tuesday 9th April 2024.    Members welcomed President Gale, together with Bowls NSW Director Lesley Swales, and CCDWBA President Claudia Lawrence with a guard of honour.     

The auditorium looked lovely with pink/mauve decorations.  A very enjoyable morning tea was served and then it was on to the green for a game of bowls.  The non-bowlers were moved to the lounge area so the auditorium could be re-decorated.  

When Gale entered the auditorium for lunch she was surprised with a sea of Lavender (her favourite colour) with the theme depicting Jacaranda's.  Gale's home town is Grafton.   

It was lovely to see Gale's family in attendance together with UBMBC President Tom, Secretary Peter and David representing Club Umina.    All enjoyed the meal and then formalities proceeded.     

Bowls NSW Director Lesley presented Gale with a gift and also presented Merit Pins to 5 ladies who Gale had chosen.   Pam Fishenden, Meryl Burgmann, Betty Jack, Barbara Schultz and Sandra O'Malley.    Lesley also presented a Merit Pin to Gale as she had never received one.
