INDOOR BOWLS REPORT
With increasing numbers the Indoor Bowls playing
days on Tuesdays and Thursdays afternoons, have be-
come a little crowded and six mats as a possible maxi-
mum on the wooden floor allows up to 48 people to
enjoy the wonderful game.
It is hoped that in the future that the Silverdale RSA
may consider enlarging the playing floor space for an
extra seventh mat to be used.
On Sunday the 27th of July, a team of twenty to twenty-
four people from the Silverdale Indoor bowls members
will play a visiting team from the Howick RSA Indoor
bowls. Our new chef has agreed to provide a nice lunch
for a reasonable sum and I am sure will be enjoyed by
both teams. The next event on the Silverdale Indoor bowls calendar
is the Birthday event on Thursday, September the 18th,
celebrating the 21st year since the Indoor bowls club
began.
Ron Megerney
8 BALL REPORT
We seem to be an ever increasing number. Maintaining our 30 plus
players on Saturday’s and 16 on Tuesday night. We had 2 further
tournaments this month – Ladies and Men’s Chosen Pairs. The
women’s comp coincided with the Colin Whalen Annual event at
Warkworth RSA leaving them with a much quieter room to con-
centrate. Successful on the day were Zuly Lyth and Colleen
Brine. We entered 5 Teams into the Warkworth event but the com-
petition was fierce with entries from top NZ players. Mervyn
McNab and David Watson represented well by taking out the Run-
ner-Up money in the Plate Final. The following weekend the
Men’s trophy was won by Keith Bate and Kato Pera. August the
9th is the big tournament of the year with the RSA 8 ball Nationals
to be held at Warkworth again. We have an invitation for 2 teams.
There will need to be a playoff to win the opportunity to represent
the Silverdale RSA at this event as more than 4 members wish to
participate.
Want to get back into the game…….. See you on Saturday!
Dave White, Club Secretary

KEV REPORT
On 29th June we held our mid-winter luncheon with some 95 mem-
bers, wives/partners and KEV widows plus guests attending. The
catering team led by Lewis provided an excellent meal and President
Jim Murray brought the team onto the floor to ensure they received
due appreciation for their efforts. The bar staff were also compli-
mented.
A highlight of the day was the announcement that our most senior
member Bill Smith was celebrating his 101st birthday. We all greeted
the news by singing the usual refrain. John Taylor’s daughter Delwyn
Argar, who incidentally did a great job in organising the raffles, then
surprised everyone by taking Bill by the hand and danced an anniver-
sary waltz together. Well done Delwyn. President Jim also intro-
duced and welcomed Danny Paton as a new member. Danny is a
serving member of the Royal New Zealand Navy.
Our July meeting welcomed David Blyth, a film producer living in
Manly, who spoke about his efforts to record on film the personal
experiences of active service veterans. David made a film of his
grandfather’s WW 1 experiences and he feels that similar experiences
of WW 2 and other conflicts should be recorded for the benefit of
future generations.
On a final note President Jim thanked Kay & Max Chilman for their
part in arranging a successful mid-winter lunch.
