***********Latest Covid-19 Update***********
Saturday fixtures have been set for 2021.
BUT ALL MATCHES DEPEND ON
THE GOVERNMENT GUIDELINES for COVID 19!!!
*************************************************************
*****2020 OUTDOOR SUBSCRIPTIONS*****
To all members of Fairoak Bowling club - the impact of COVID-19 has caused great concern on the ability to play bowls this Summer.
Our club will remain closed for now as we continue to comply with the Government directives on social isolation. A large percentage of our members are over 70 and therefore may be advised to continue with self isolation for longer.
Therefore the decision has been taken to CANCEL the subscription fee for this year. We are in a fortunate position,(unlike private clubs) in that our overheads are mainly the upkeep of the green, and the council have decided to waive the cost of green maintenance this year.
Any payments already made for membership, competitions etc. will be held by the treasurer for now until things return to normal.
We look forward to seeing all our members back together again when this crisis is over. Please use the guest book to communicate with fellow members.
Stay Safe and look after yourselves.
