Underbool Bowls Club Opening Day.
It was a very trying day weather wise for Underbool bowlers as they commenced their first official day of bowls for the season 2020/2021. But the fellowship and camaraderie once on the green was beneficial to all. Opening the season, President Robert Gloster welcomed those present and asked previous year’s Ladies Singles Championship winner, Marie Cummings to roll the first kitty; and Alan Stone as Runner/Up to Men’s Singles Championship to put down the first bowl.
Poole and Jackson had kindly donated Trophies for the day’s play.
Winners of the day were, Roll to the Ditch – Raelene Winslow and Robert Gloster.
Third place getters of play with 49 points were, Howard Crothers and Noelene Crow.
Runners/up, Col Lockett and Raelene Winslow, 72 ½ points.
Winners, John Cummings and Jennifer Wakefield, 73 ½ points.
The Underbool Bowls Club is very appreciative of the continued generous Sponsorship from Poole and Jackson. Many thanks.
Best wishes to the Ladies Midweek Pennant Team playing in second Division again this year. To commence on Monday 12th. October, and also to Saturday Pennant to commence on October 31st.
Men’s and Ladies Club Championships have been drawn up and members are encouraged to get a start on these games. Busy harvest season coming up.
Good bowling and good health to all.

Mallee Track Health and Community Services
Restrictions have eased a little in Regional Victoria and many community members are wondering when MTHCS services will begin again. We wanted to reassure that we are also very keen to get our Allied Health services and Social Support activities up and running again. However, to ensure the safety of the community and staff and due to some restrictions remaining we need to take some time to look at the way we do things.
In Underbool Podiatry clinics will recommence later in October however, there have been some changes made to how the service operates so please call the Podiatry Department so they can assess your specific needs and make an appointment, please phone 0427946272 if they don’t answer please leave your name and number so they can call you back.
‘Verandah visits’ will also begin soon, giving clients the opportunity to reconnect in person with people in the safety of their home environment.
Thanks for your patience
