Noosa Lawns Club bowled over their new first class facilities

The Noosa Lawns Club celebrated the completion of its newest renovation on Friday evening, 24 January.

More than 100 people attended the grand opening represented by the mayor Frank Wilkie as well as Independent member for Noosa Sandy Bolton.

Bowls Club president Dallas Furner opened proceedings and proudly discussed the clubs 75 year journey from its humble beginnings to were the club is now.

The clubs patron and dual international Michael Oconner also offered words of support for the club as did Sandy Bolton, all long standing supporters of the Noosa Lawns Bowls Club.

The wine flowed and the nibbles were plentiful as Dallas touched on the clubs consultation strategy with the members to ensure the club delivered exactly what the members wanted.

The new renovation included removing the entire external awning and paved area and replacing with 220m2 of concrete with a three tiered awning providing the perfect external area to enjoy a cold drink whilst watching or playing bowls.

Artificial grass now surrounds the greens and with new furniture in place the area also becomes an external function area, perfect for young families to enjoy the alfresco setting.

A full upgrade of external greens lighting has been completed and inside the club has been opened up with all new windows and sliding doors allowing more natural light into the venue.

Dallas said the club is now focused on its next project and continuing to provide first class facilities for its members and guests.
