BUDE?Bowling Club President Harold Reece-Pinchin welcomed Bowls Cornwall President Roger Priestley, members and guests to the group's 82nd annual dinner and presentation evening held at the Camelot Hotel recently.

Before dinner the bowlers' grace was led by Trevor House, and after a wonderful meal, secretary Bill Dixon proposed the loyal toast. President Harold said how much the club appreciated Roger and his wife, Sue, taking the time to attend after what had been such a busy year for them.

He thanked the Camelot Hotel and their staff for laying on an excellent meal which everyone had enjoyed. He went on to congratulate all those who had reached the county quarter finals and said what a successful year it had been for the club.
