Peter Best, Tony Collins, obscured, Kerry Green, DDBA, Paul McEwan,
Ray Weis, Roger Haldane, Lachlan Barnes, side captain, Daryl Fraser,
Bill Perry, John Fowler, Howard Cornwell, Shane Case and Bill Kruger
Even though they have competed
most years, 1972 was the last time
the Crows Nest Bowls Club won a
division pennant.
During the recent 2022 season,
most weeks the club found it difficult
to scrape together enough players to
field a side.
CROWS NEST: September 14 -
Afternoon social bowls was won by
Dennis Russell and John McConnell.
Second were Joe MacDonald and
Brian Gleeson.
The weather has become more
agreeable, and so too has the number
of feet on the green.
There’ll be a format change on
future Wednesdays. Back to prizes
for both winners and runners-up. The
smaller jackpot will still be available
each week.
October 1 - Final of club fours -
Stephen Emmerton, Bevan Wingett,
Lachlan Barnes and John Michelmore
v. John Fowler, Ray Weis, Daryl Fraser
and Paul McEwan.
October 2 - (10.30 start): Final
of club triples - Stephen Emmerton,
Daryl Fraser and Paul McEwan v.
John Fowler, Lachlan Barnes and
Dave Allen (sub - Howard Cornwell.)
. Crows Nest celebrated bringing the
Division 4 Pennant home on Saturday,
September 10. It’s been a long time
between drinks at Crows Nest; and our
Side Manager Lachlan Barnes, as well
as all of our players, are congratulated
for a finely fought outcome.
The weather is on the improve, so
why not join the Thrifty Thursday
group each week. It’s a good couple
of hours fun and you’ll always be
welcome.
September 11 - Re/Max Rural
Afternoon was won by Daryl Fraser,
Carol Bartholomaeus and Howard
Cornwell. Shane Case, Paul McEwan
and Maree Millin claimed runnersup.
Many thanks to Re/Max Rural for
sponsoring an enjoyable afternoon on
the green. Much appreciated.
But old and young heads decided
to give it a red hot go over the nine
weeks.
Congratulations to all of the club
members who played in the earlier
rounds that laid the foundation for a
win in the grand final. Let’s not wait
another 50 years. - Contributed

CABARLAH: Cabarlah Fishing Club’s September
trip was to Coolmunda Dam on September 10-
11. After the dam being almost dry a couple of years
back, the fish numbers are still rebuilding.
With the forecast of a fine weekend, 10 members
made the trip and everyone was out early on Saturday
in near perfect weather. But this didn’t last with
a strong south-westerly making for a change of plans
to find some calmer waters. There were plenty of fish
showing up at various spots but they were reluctant to
play the ‘fishing game.’
The biggest risk takers were Jew with quite a few
landed throughout the day.
The member’s draw was won by Jake and the Saturday
catch (biggest Jew) went to Wayne.
On Sunday morning the conditions were again
great and at final weigh-in the tally for the weekend
was 27 fish, seven Yellow Belly, five Silver and 15
Jew.
Most fish caught -
Five by Vanda, heaviest
Yellow Belly - 1.25kg
by Noel, heaviest Silver.
- 7kg by Chris and heaviest
Jew 2.02kg by Anna.
The club’s October
trip is to Copeton Dam
on October 1-3. At this
stage there are nine definite
starters.
This is a long weekend
in NSW, so it would
be advisable to pre-book
if a powered site or a
cabin is required.
The annual general
meeting will be held on
Sunday, November 6 at
Meringandan Hotel at
2pm. - Noel Purcell
Heaviest Jew 2.02kg
caught by Anna Smith
Bruce Lucht, Brett McDonald, Gary Lange
and George Fenton
