As Club Captain I am pleased to report that Winslow Bowls Club has won the Buckinghamshire Bowls Association Community Award for 2024.
Roger Shelton, Victor, Cliff and I attended the BBA Annual Presentations Award Dinner on Saturday 2nd November at the Spread Eagle Hotel in Thame.
We enjoyed a meal together with some very nice red wine and then sat through an hour or more of runners up and winners in all competitions being presented with their trophies.
In the last part of the programme awards were made in a number of new categories. Cathy Clark the BBA Secretary read out the citations for each of these. She then talked about an award to the Community Club of the year mentioning the organisations which had contributed to funding the project, which proved to be our Accessibility Project and we realised that we were the proud winners of this award and all four of us were presented with the certificate which we will proudly place on display in our clubhouse.
We have passed on our thanks to the organisations that funded the project for us which were Winslow Lions, Rotary Club of Winslow, Winslow Town Council and BC Winslow and Villages Community Board.
Kind Regards John Gilbey
