Leave a comment

As part of the “National Youth Week” program Camden Bowling Club conducted a Barefoot Bowls Day on Sunday 9th April 2017 which was attended by over 30 youth and adults from the Camden/Campbelltown areas.

The event was held with the support of Camden Council and Camden Valley Driving School for which we are grateful. Members of Camden Junior Bowls Academy (Mia Hotson, Ben Cade, Chris Hill and Angus Powell) all provided instruction to those that attended. It was pleasing to see the junior members of our club become active in the promotion of Lawn Bowls.
