Lanarkshire News-Clarkston & Dist. Presentation Night for season 2025 on 7th March 2026
Clarkston members and friends got together in the local Clarkston Bowling club for their annual presentation night. It is always great to go along and support your club and congratulate last season’s winners.
This year again we were supported by good club friends Walter Boswell and Jim McGuire. Jim's daughter Karen provided the Karaoke entertainment that went down a treat with all who attended .

After our club secretary Charlie Muir thanked everyone for their support, he asked Walter Boswell to come forward and present this year’s trophy winners.
Walter himself is a Champion pigeon fancier who has won at the highest level at club ,federation and National level and we thank him again for his continued support of our club.
We then enjoyed a lovely buffet provided by John Stangoe followed by Jim & Karen providing a cracking night of music.
