Great Initiative from Small Club
An important development concerning the Patearoa Bowling Club. The Patearoa hall is slated for demolition, which has prompted the Patearoa club members to consider transitioning the bowling club into a multi-function centre. This initiative aims to accommodate a variety of community and sporting events, thereby enhancing our local engagement.
​
To facilitate these additional functions, it is envisioned that an extension to the bowling club building will be necessary. This expansion will not only allow for more attendees but will also incorporate space for two indoor bowls mats and a designated area for darts tournaments. While the primary use of the bowling club will remain focused on lawn bowls, these enhancements will significantly enrich the offerings available to our
community.
The club is situated some 20km from Ranfurly, on the furthest edge of our bowling area, the south edge of the Maniototo basin. It is part of the sports domain which also features a flat, green, parklike golf course. The club currently has 12 members, 9 men and 3 women.
