​Starting Strong
​​                          Come join us
Both the Wednesday and Sunday BFB leagues had a great first week with lots of new bowlers. The competition looks strong even though some of the games were blow-outs.  Those with curling skills came in ahead of the curve having had the winter to "practice".

at  Short Jack Tournament
King City LBC hosted a great Short Jack Tournament this past weekend with every NW Division club entering a player.  Moving the SJ to June offered only a slight improvement in the weather but the rain didn't dampen the competitive spirits.
After 5 games of flight play, the championship game featured strong competition between Alexis Vanden Bos and Chris Davis of Jefferson Park against Peter Mauro and Ernie Carlson of Portland.  Each team offered up stunning shots to keep the crowd entranced. 
Going into the final end JP was up 5 points and played to the ditch.  Pete put the jack and two bowls in the ditch with a potential  point on the bank.  He made a great drive on the last bowl rebounding onto the green taking 3, not quite enough for the win. 
​Vanden Bos and Davis take the title to JP for the year.
