Celebrating 100 Years
The Wanaka Bowling Club recently celebrated its 100th anniversary with pride, laughter, and nostalgia, bringing together current and former members,, and friends. The highlight was the Centennial Dinner hosted by Eion Willis, featuring reflections on a century of bowls from Club President Simon Nyhof and special guests John McBeth MNZM and Paul Allison MNZM. A memorable moment included Life Member Delma Guy cutting the centennial cake, honoring the club's rich history and its dedicated volunteers. Since its modest beginnings in 1926, the club has fostered community connections, producing champions and creating lasting friendships that extend beyond trophies. Here's to another century of community and connection through bowls!
