Bowlers have raised $1100 for Te Awamutu’s Riding for the Disabled organisation.
Kihikihi Bowling Club’s latest tournament was a departure from the norm, in that all proceeds from the day were donated.
Representatives from the RDA attended the prize giving and co-ordinator Rosalie Rea spoke about the role of the riding for the disabled in the community.
Bowlers also came to the party with individual donations – and the return of prize money into the pool.
The tournament attracted a full field of bowlers from throughout the Waikato and King Country and the results indicated the level of competition out on the green with only one team managing four wins from four and three finishing with three wins and a draw.
The winners were the Te Kuiti team of Kevin Higgins (skip), Steve Woods and Peter Lange. Second place went to a Kihikihi team of Owen Johnston (skip), Irving Garrett and Don Millin. Cambridge Central’s Robbie Davidson (skip), Ron Greenwood and Craig Pilkington were third.
