A net profit over $1.7M was generated by Ettalong Bowling Club in 2020/21, as reported at the Club’s Annual General Meeting on January 30.

CEO Tim McGavin and Chairman Gary Thomson said the profits were “an outstanding result” despite the difficulties of COVID-19.

The club said the funds will help build new facilities for members and guests including the reopening of the club café, and a new beer garden which is due for completion in March.

The club’s elections were held prior to the event with Gary Thomson and Ken Dixon re-elected as Chairman and Vice Chairman respectively.

Thomson thanked former Board members Peter Butt and Alf Cooper for their outstanding service to the club and encouraged all members and guests to participate in their community activities.

The Board of Directors now consists of Kerry Watkins, Neil Ferguson, Denis Holden, Tracy Burraston and Geoff O’Hara.
