Monday The essence of the tournament was wound up in a neat package but the king of Radio WOBA, Brian Fowler. He presented a Lifetime Bowling Achievement Award to master bowler Ron Jones and he read greetings from yearly participant Matt Houtby from Afghanistan. Ron that has exceled and Matt who allows us to try.

Off to London to-day to spend a week doing some of my favourite things.
Bowling every day, seeing friends from near and far and helping players and guests enjoy our sport.
I am involved with a small but mighty committee that dedicates many hours to run this gem of a tournament.
Our annual mission is to sustain a meeting of talented bowlers that originated in 1895. 
This show must go on.
Noreen Welsh, Brian Fowler, Peter Mutter and Wayne Wright and yours truly are the current bedrock of this wall of fame. Rita Wright and Andrea Weigand have jumped to the fore to serve on a special committee to help celebrate 115 continuous years of fun and games.
I will attempt to give you a a taste of the action from the day and catch up on other Province news at night.
This is the start of a bounty of competitive events that stretches from the young to the seniors.
What a sport!
Rink side for me. See you there.
