LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Bowls, community and conversation at Parliament

Dear Editor,

It was a pleasure to welcome members of the Moyhu Bowls Club and Eldorado Indoor Carpet Bowls to Parliament House last week for a tour and a few friendly games.

With wonderful weather and great company, the day was a fantastic opportunity to showcase Parliament while enjoying the camaraderie that bowls brings. It was terrific to see such strong community spirit, with plenty of laughs shared along the way.

Importantly, the visit also provided a valuable chance to discuss matters important to the community. These conversations are vital to ensuring regional voices are heard and well represented.

I thank everyone who made the trip for their enthusiasm and good humour, and for contributing to such an enjoyable day.

I look forward to taking them up on their kind, yet competitive offer of a return match on their home turf in the near future.
