BOGNOR REGIS BOWLS CLUB

My name is Alan Knight. I have been given the rather grand title of Bognor Regis Bowls Club Press Officer.

I look forward to playing a small part in the operations of the club, I'm not the most organised of people but I will do my best to make sure that the club gets a fair mention in the local Observer.

To do this I need to gather as much information as possible, if you have anything you want to add please tell me or leave a note in the wooden box marked Secretary in the mens office.


With regards to the Photo Shoot on the 7th June, a notice was displayed on the main notice board for at least three weeks prior to the event.

To say the least, I was rather surpised to see how few people even bothered to read the notice and how many did not even see it.

The turn out was by any standards rather poor, but we will keep trying anyway.

I hope you all have a very good season.
