TeeBeeCee Gazette
NOVEMBER 2012FROM THE CHAIRMAN
You will recall that in an earlier issue of TeeBeeCee Gazette it was men-tioned that Alan Wilson had asked that we try to find a replacement for him in his role as Sponsorship Manager. It’s fair to say that this gave the Board some real concern in that finding a new Sponsorship Manager wasn’t going to be easy – especially one who could follow in the wake of Willo’s exceptional success over such a long period of time.
It therefore gives me great delight in being able to advise that Roger Bromley has kindly agreed to take over from Alan. Fortunately for us, Roger has had previous experience in managing sponsorships whilst at his previous bowling club. So how lucky are we?

Roger Bromley
Willo, to his great credit, has actually set everything up for calendar year 2013 – no small task. So Roger will at least be able to glide into the job rather than being dropped in the deep end. Full marks then to Alan Wilson and to Roger Bromley. TBC continues to be blessed by the number of people who are ready and willing to give some of their time and their talents to the club and to the sport of lawn bowls.
THANK YOU TO OUR VOLUNTEERS—BOWLS GAME
All of our volunteers and their partners are invited to attend a free game of bowls on Sunday 9th Decem-ber at 10:00am followed by a finger food lunch. A nomination sheet is on the bench. This is the Board’s way of saying “thank you” to our many volunteers for the splendid work they do throughout the year.
PLEASE DON’T FORGET THE SGM BEING HELD AT TBC ON SATURDAY 10th NOVEMBER AT 4:15PM Harvey FullerChairman
