Indoor Bowls in Fancy Dress

An indoor bowls night with a difference was staged by members of the Poverty Bay Indoor Bowling Club recently, when most of the club players were decked out in fancy dress. The occasion was a night put on to entertain members of the Fire Brigade.

A grand parade of those in costume started the evening. The costumes were judged and Mrs G. McFarlane as a High School boy.
