In was great news to end 2023 for members of Wyong Bowling Club with the reopening of the popular riverfront outdoor deck area after a $700,000 upgrade.
It was an important investment to restore this historic club back to its best, as it is the oldest bowling club on the Central Coast.
Following a short-term partial closure the club’s owner, Wyong Leagues Group, commemorated the re-opening of the outdoor deck with an informal ribbon cutting ceremony.
The club had been trading at limited capacity since February 2023 after a routine engineer’s report identified structural issues with the building back in December 2022.
That report led to a short-term closure until repairs could ensure a safe environment for members and staff.
Wyong Leagues Group CEO Ben Coghlan thanked members of Wyong Bowling Club for their patience and understanding during the upgrade process.
“We’re delighted to be able to invest in the future of the club,” he said.
“Wyong Bowlo is the oldest bowling club on the Central Coast, having opened on this site in 1912, so it is a significant part of the heritage of this part of the Coast.
“It is one of the very first clubs to become amalgamated into the Wyong Leagues Group so it is also a very significant part of our heritage.”
