Have you ever thought how difficult it is to make new friends in your community? It’s quite possible to live in a suburb for many years but not know many local people. For recent arrivals especially, making social contacts can be daunting.
Joining a local club is one of the best ways to meet new people, but the club needs to be welcoming, not too large and offer enjoyable activities.
Yamala Park Bowling Club in South Frankston is a small, friendly club, with most members drawn from the local area. It welcomes new members at any time. Barefoot Bowls (with free barbecue) is offered for the community on Friday afternoons until dusk. This starts after Christmas. For other times, phone 9787 5638.
The club is running its first Community Bowls program for new bowlers this November through to December and will be offering morning tea and an introduction to lawn bowls each Sunday, from 10am-noon on November 19 and 26, and December 3 and 10.
Why not come and join club members, meet your neighbours and have a talk and a friendly game with a free cuppa and morning tea as well. All you need to bring are flat shoes. All bowls supplied.
