Friendly match vs Bray BC

To:  All CI Knock Members

Happy New Year to you all.

The friendly match, mentioned by Louis Arneill at our AGM, between Bray Bowling Club and CI Knock is now confirmed and it should be a very enjoyable and sociable day out.  Details as follows:-

Date:  Tuesday 17 April

Venue:  Bray Bowling Club

Transport:  Coach

Cost: £20
Dress code: Club shirt & grey trousers
Final details including timings are still to be finalised, however we envisage that the coach will leave CIYMS at the very latest 9 am could be 8.30 am.  Food will be provided by the Bray Club with lunch before the match and some eats (eg sausage rolls) after it. There will be socialising before we return home – we will be away all day and evening.

There will be a limit to numbers so it is “first come first served”.

Obviously numbers will determine the size and cost of the coach and we have to pay Bray Club for catering for us (all included in the £20) so please only give me your name if you genuinely intend to go.
Please let me know by Saturday 27 January if you wish to join the trip and state whether you would like to play bowls or just spectate.

Many thanks.
Mary

Au Revoir dear friend

 

Roberta Hughes

We said goodbye to Roberta on Wednesday 6th December at a lovely service at Castlereagh Presbyterian Church.

The Thanksgiving service was given by Rev. Burnside.

The service was well attended by her friends from Knock Bowling Club as was befitting a long loyal member of our bowling circle. Roberta will be sadly missed as she contributed a lot to the club in too many ways to mention here.

As you know Roberta was elected to Honorary membership at the recent AGM, a well-deserved honour.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Helen and Tony and the rest of the family circle

Till we meet again dear friend.

 

Sad News

Message from the Hon. Sec.:-

I am very very sorry to tell you that Roberta Hughes died early this morning in the Ulster Hospital.  As you all know she had been ill for some time.

To say that we will all miss Roberta at the club is an understatement – she was the club’s most loyal member and she encouraged and supported each one of us individually and collectively.

To Helen and Tony we send our heartfelt sympathies.

I will let you know funeral arrangements in due course – possibly Tuesday.

CI Knock BC AGM

Please see below some information from the Hon. Secretary following the AGM which was held on Friday 24th November.

Green availability over the winter.

Whether our green should remain open for play was discussed at the AGM yesterday.

As there appeared to be little or no interest in playing over the worst of the winter months the members present at the meeting decided that the green will be closed until the beginning of March.
