We would like to say a big thank you to our friends at All Seasons Synthetic Turf in Braeside for helping us complete the surrounds of Packys Paddock.
As they say, “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure,” and this was so true.
Thank you, Tom Harro and his team, for supplying the turf to complete our project.
So if you are thinking of laying some quality instant turf, please give Tom a call.
An email to the right people saved us $$$$$ and you could too.
All Seasons Synthetic Turf,
Tom Harrington,

As the HRSLBC enters the winter bowls period, it’s time to remind everyone of our generous sponsors.
First off, the wonderful team at Buxton Sandringham who have been our major sponsor for many years.
A number of our bowlers (or their families ) have used the professional Buxton services over the last 12 months and have spoken very highly of them.
So, if you’re thinking of selling your house or renting or it’s time you oldies took the next step and thought of re-sizing - contact the team at Buxton
(03) 9598 8222.

Let’s support our sponsors like they support us.
