Palmwoods Club honours couple for long service

Val and Col Saunders cut a cake to honour their 25 years service.

CLUB stalwarts Val and Col Saunders were recently recognised for 25 years service to the Palmwoods Bowls Club.  

"Little clubs like ours rely on volunteers such as Val & Col," said Club Chairperson Glynis Myers. "Volunteers are hard to find and it is important to recognise the work they do. Val and Col have been members for 25 years and heavily involved in various fund-raising to finance additions to the facility."    

Val was President of the Ladies Section and also Social Director for the Club.  Both Col and Val have volunteered at the Craft Day,  Invisits and Fiesta, not only volunteering, but also baking for most of these events. Val was a top bowler until she became ill playing in the District pennants, winning the District 4s and District 3s in various years. She also won many club championships.
