Croquet News

November 8, 2019 by Maggi Barnard

It was a wonderful surprise on Saturday to see what appears to be the final piece of the ramp jigsaw puzzle safely enclosed at the croquet grounds. The ramp will make things so much easier for members to access the amenities in the club house. Thanks to Forbes Shire Council. The birthday lunch for November will be held at the Forbes Services Club on Tuesday 12th November. The last Croquet day before Christmas will be on the 21st December.

It was a windy morning with hats and chairs being blown in all directions, however it did not dampen the spirits of the players. Welcome back to Jill Rubie after her hospital stay. She recovered quickly as the scores of the day told the story. She won three games on her first visit back to the courts.
