    The Ladies Spring Meeting will be held on Sunday March 13th,
    with the Men’s Spring Meeting following on Sunday March 27th at 11:00 am.

    This year we’re going to combine the Club Spring Meeting with the Opening of the Green – this will be on Saturday April 16th, with the meeting starting at 11:00 am, followed by the ‘official’ green opening.

    On Saturday 19th March we have a Quiz Night which has been organised by bar our staff to tie in with Red Nose Day, and then on Tuesday 5th April Town Gardens Bowls Club join us here at Highworth for another of their popular quiz evenings. Visit the Club for further details, or to enter your team.

    A little later we’re hoping to hold a Royal Wedding ‘Street Party’ at the Club on Friday April 29th – outside if the weather is kind, or in the clubhouse if not!

    Finally if you know anyone who would like to join the Club as a social member or bowler, we’ll be holding our annual Open Day on Saturday 14 May from around 10:30 am to 2:30 pm.
