Thank you

To whom it may concern,

It has been brought to the attention of certain club members that the dress of a fewbowlers, is at the very least, lacking in common dress sense. This is a reflection on ourclub.

As a result of these complaints we have appointed a club member to assist those aforementioned" bad dressers" with ideas to improve their dress style. Fashion police wouldaptly describe these/this person(s).

This/these person(s) will remain anonymous, however if you should receive a tap onthe shoulder and "could I have a quiet word", please be polite and accept the advice inthe well intentioned manner it was meant,

Thank you.

DID YOU KNOW - that prior to 1994, our club house was occupied by more groups thanjustthe Lawn Bowling Club! A Senior Center, The Recreation Park Mens Club (men onlybowling),The Long Beach Lawn Bowling Club (women only bowling), The Seaside Club, and, a groupthat oversaw the finances for all clubs, all called our club house their home. Gradually, allbutthe men and women lawn bowlers, fell by the wayside. In 1996, Pat Gonzales (and herlawyerdaughter) petitioned City Hall to combine men and women bowlers into one club. The citythenchanged its charter to designate that there will be one Long Beach Lawn Bowling Club. Atthattime, the club also gained the ability to govern its own finances. Thus, was born the LBLBCInits present form.
