2012 Grade 2 Flag Unfurling
2012 Grade 2 Flag Unfurling
On a perfect Autumn day, the flag unfurling ceremony took place on Tuesday 22nd May at Terrigal for the victorious Twos. The day commenced with President Pam Ison welcoming the Patron of Central Coast District, Mrs Beryl Brown (representing President Lesley) and District Match representative, Mrs Robyn Cosgrove. Other invited guests included Mr John Macintosh, Chairman of the Board of Club Terrigal, together with its Secretary Manager, Mr Bruce Jewell and Mr Graham Cannon, Vice President of Terrigal Men’s Bowling Club all of whom offered their congratulations to President Pam on the club’s successful Pennant Season. We were pleased to also welcome The Grade Two District Runners Up who had travelled from Halekulani to join us for the celebration.
After a most welcome morning tea, expressions of congratulations were offered. The Terrigal ladies then formed a Guard of Honour across the green to the flag pole. To the sound of We Are The Champions echoing across the green, the winners and the runners up were applauded as they assembled for Patron Beryl to unfurl the red Grade Two District flag. Each of the members of the winning side and the Runners Up proudly received their District certificates from Patron Beryl.
All present then enjoyed a game of bowls, when comments were made that the day’s favourable weather conditions were in such stark contrast to the rain and wind which we experienced at the Play Offs. This was followed by a delicious lunch, which was enjoyed and appreciated by all. After an enthusiastic rendition of the Terrigal Club Song, the Terrigal Twos will certainly be inspired to give of their best when they contest the Regional Play Offs at Charlestown on June 5th.
