2020 ANNUAL FALL MEETING NOT HELD DUE TO COVID: Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the Club was unable to hold its Annual Fall Meeting in October, 2020. Provincial regulations regarding the maximum number of people allowed to gather or meet, indoors or outdoors, made it impossible for us to obtain the necessary numbers required for a quorum to render the meeting official. As a result a sufficient number of members were nominated to executive and board positions. And until we hold elections for these positions, the following members will serve as Executive Officers on a provisional basis: PRESIDENT - Ken Maitland, VICE PRESIDENT - Neil Johnson, SECRETARY - Elizabeth Dawson, TREASURER - Al Price, DIRECTOR - Suzanne Day and PAST PRESIDENT - Tony Farrell. One Director position is vacant. UNELECTED BOARD MEMBERS 2020-21: Until we have a meeting to elect these nominated members, the following will serve to maintain the club's business during Covid: GREENS - Charlie Roach, MEMBERSHIP - Evan Bingley, TOURNAMENTS - Julia Farrell, BUILDING & PROPERTY - Rodger Carey, HOSPITALITY - Barbara Day-Wills, CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS - Chris Clark, COACHING - Bob Pring, INDOOR BOWLING - Lorraine Negus and BAR - Josephine McLean. AD HOC CHAIRPERSONS: NEWSLETTER - Joan Deutscher, SPONSORSHIP - Doug Brusey, NEWCOMERS & NOVICES - Bob Pring, MEN'S INTERCLUB LEAGUE - George Menzies & Robert Radcliffe, SICK & VISITING - Helen Archer, HANDBOOK - Lorraine Negus, PHOTO ALBUM - Evan Bingley. Note: PUBLICITY, LANDSCAPING and WOMEN'S INTERCLUB LEAGUE are open, please apply. | |||||||||||||||||

The Burlington Lawn Bowling Club (BLBC) is a private charter club located in the heart of Burlington, Ontario. The club is a member of District 5 of the Ontario Lawn Bowling Association (OLBA). The club invites you to join us for lively social interaction and mild exercise on the "GREEN" and we invite and encourage non-members to play as our guests. BLBC has two regulation-size greens of 8 rinks each. Bowling occurs virtually every day of the week during our operating season, usually in the afternoons and evenings. More information on the choice of times and levels of play of all bowling activities can be found in the 2018 Handbook. In addition, for the competitive bowler, the club also hosts numerous "Open Tournaments" and District & Provincial Championships throughout the year. For your enjoyment, the club is licensed for beer and wine service.
INDOOR BOWLING: Want to lawn bowl all year round? No problem! At BLBC you can bowl indoors from October to April for $100. We roll out 3 mats in our clubhouse. The game is similar to outdoors but the greens are mats (shorter & narrower than outside) with a block in the middle to make the game more challenging. Small bowls are supplied. All you need is indoor flat-soled shoes. We have open bowling every afternoon (with refreshments & cookies between games). There are also leagues in the mornings & evenings. Come join us and enjoy the camaraderie. Lessons are available. There is an additional fee of $30 for non-outdoor members. Please check out the new 2019-2020 Indoor Bowling Schedule for the times of all events and league action. |
