News & Events
April Branch Meeting will not be held on the first Tuesday, as is usual.
The meeting will be held on
Tuesday 21st April , starting at 7pm
We have had a Tower of London Poppy donated to us, in memory of a members' Mother. There will be an unveiling and words of Remembrance , prior to the main meeting.
We are aware that some members do not like to go out in the evenings, or Tuesday just isn't convenient.
Therefore, in an attempt to include more members, who for whatever reason, are unable to attend the usual Tuesday evening meetings at Weymouth Road, we are moving May's meeting to
Thursday 7th May 2 pm at All Souls Church Hall.
Branch Meetings are usually held on the first Tuesday of each month 7pm for 7.30pm
Cheriton Bowls Club Weymouth Road
The Annual General Meeting replaces the Branch Meeting on the first Tuesday in October
All Branch Members are encouraged and welcome to attend the meetings
