Get ready for a new NTSC summer activity...lawn bowling!
Thursday, Sept. 19th, you'll have a chance to flex your lawn bowling skills during two hours of tournament play at one of the best outdoor venues in Toronto. It's quick to learn and easy to be good.
We've organized a fun-filled evening at the Kew Beach Lawn Bowling Club (KBLC). All skill levels are welcome; equipment is provided. Trained coaches will demonstrate and assist with proper delivery of the bowls, game play, and scoring.
Following the games, we'll take a short 10 minute walk to The Stone Lion pub, where we've reserved some space for NTSCers to enjoy drinks, pub snacks and game recap.
