It was all beer and bowls at the Ettalong Bowling Club last weekend when it opened its new beer garden with many supporters in attendance.

The new garden and entertainment area is part of an $800,000 upgrade.

Club Vice President, Ken Dixon, said it was a great day had by all and encouraged locals to come take a look at the new build.

“It was a great day for the Club with local politicians [Member for Gosford] Liesl Tesch and [Labor Candidate for Robertson] Gordon Reid in attendance,” Dixon said.

“The beer garden was also put to good use on the following day as many people were at the Club to watch the big boxing event in America featuring Australian Tim Tszyu.

“The beer garden promises to be a great asset for the Club, and we invite Peninsula residents and their guests down to the Club to enjoy this new facility.”

Dixon said the beer garden will be a fantastic vantage point to see all the action unfold on the four bowling greens.

The Club hopes to make the venue available for a range of community activities including parties, functions, birthdays and even weddings.

Ettalong Bowling Club is located on Springwood St, Umina Beach, and is open from Monday to Sunday with live music on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
