Gisborne & District Bowling Club
Ms THOMAS (Macedon—Minister for Agriculture, Minister for Regional Development) (12:36): Congratulations to the Gisborne & District Bowling Club on their victory a few weeks ago at the state midweek pennant championships. In an epic battle, Gisborne defeated the mighty city of Geelong for the premiership title in Moama. Congratulations to the entire team: Russell Walker, Ian Ball, Terry Kelly, Ethan Higgins, David Beardmore, Peter Williams, Tim Rogers, Alan Higgins, Teresa Wylie, Paul O’Farrell, Graham Quaife, Garry Candy, Kevin Jarred, Louise Ball and Barry Wylie. I was delighted to join the club’s victory celebrations to announce the Victorian government has committed $245 000 to install a brand new synthetic green so the club can play all year round.
