Saturday, May 30 - Pat Binnie, Cathy Wheat (Roselawn) and Chuck Agro were in the money today at Beamsville, coming in second  to Larry's team from Niagara Falls.  Larry is usually in the mix and it really doesn't matter who he plays with.

Wednesday, May 27 - two Burlington teams played in Milton in the Women's Triples with a Novice and ended up with identical records of 1 win and 1 loss - but didn't make the money. Oakville and Milton teams were the winners in this event.  Totally unplanned, the team of Pat Binnie, Toni Langshaw and Penny Heneke were in light pink tops with white bottoms, while the team of Marion Brunton, Theresa Kennedy and Audry De Souza were in hot pink tops and white bottoms. We all looked good and had a fun day. 

Sunday, May 24 - a Burlington team consisting of Jim Steckle, Ernie Gersok, Chris Brandl and Chuck Agro did a great job at Kitchener's Heritage Greens Lawn Bowling Club against outstanding opponents with 2 wins and 1 loss.  However, they didn't make the money.  Overall winner was Rick Lyons, John Bezear, Rob Galipeau and Erik Galipeau. In second place was Murray Bennewies, Jim Roth, Everett Zwiers and Derek McKie. Third place was Ryan Blair, Jake Masterson, Mike McNorton and Kody Olthof. 

Wednesday, May 20 - two Burlington teams participated in Oakville's Women's Triples of 2-12 end games.  Midge Leonhardt, Dorothy McIntyre and Irene I'Anson won both games but were, unfortunately, out of the money.  The team of Pat Binnie, Teresa Bucknall (Beamsville)  and Penny Heneke won one game high winner aggregate. Congratulations to both teams. 

Monday, May 18 -  Patrick Cote, Pat Binnie and John Smyth captured First place, winning 3 games in Woodstock, with 16 teams overall. It was a nice birthday present for John - first time in Woodstock and a significant year (you will have to ask him to find out how significant!). Congratulations to the threesome. 

Saturday, May 16 - Pat Binnie, Theresa Kennedy and Brian Conroy were the only Burlington team at the mixed triples in Beamsville. They won the first game but the second games were rained out with 3 or 4 ends to play. We didn’t place in the money but a good tournament to start off the year. This was Brian’s first outside tournament - and think he may have caught the bug. 😆
