Pennant Flag Unfurling

Camden Men’s Bowling Club invites Members to attend the unfurling of the 2016 Zone 5 Grade 3 Pennant Flag on Sunday 25th September 2016. Club Uniform.

There will be a game of bowls from 10am to 12 noon, followed by the Unfurling of the Flag and a Light Lunch.

There is a notice on the Notice Board, so please indicate if you will be playing bowls (P) or just attending the Unfurling (NP). Grade 3 players unable to attend please indicate also.

Smoke-Free Environment Act 2000

After receiving an email from Mr Greg Helm CEO Bowls NSW an announcement was made at the club yesterday by the author of this email regarding the “Smoke-Free Environment Act 2000” and the impact on ALL bowling clubs in NSW.

For those members not present yesterday I supply the following information.

The circular can be viewed at RNSWBA.org.au and look under circulars 04/2016. But the relevant paragraphs are below.

Quote “as you are aware, smoking is banned in spectator areas of sports grounds or other recreational areas while an organised sporting event is being held. The smoking ban applies to both covered and uncovered spectator areas whether seating is provided or not”.

“Patrons or spectators may be issued with an on the spot fine of $300 for non-compliance”.

What impact this legislation has on our club.

During an organised game of lawn bowls whether it be social or championship or zone / state events there should be no smoking by members or visitors under the covered area along the rear of the club or around or on the bowling greens.

The Sports Club has provided a designated smoking area which is located beyond the north western corner of the club near the sand green and continues around the outdoor poker machine area.

Apart from this area smokers may move to the public area which is located outside the north easterly boundary of the Sports club near the car parking area or behind the hedge plants along the north west edge of the No2 green.

Please keep in mind this is not an initiative of CMBC! This is to be compliant with a legislated Act which affects ALL bowling clubs.

It is simply my intention to fulfil my responsibilities as the elected Secretary of CMBC and to avoid our members and guests being fined under the Smoke-Free Environment Act 2000.

Regards,
CMBC Secretary
