Eketahuna Bowling Club have opened their 2012-13 season.
A pleasing number of members and visitors took part, along with Bowls Wairarapa representatives Richard and Val Whitley and Roger Smith.
The first jack of the season was rolled by club patron Max Cooper. Richard Whitley was accorded the honour of delivering the first bowl.
Two rounds of games were played after the opening ceremony and all players enjoyed the excellent condition of the green, which is a tribute to the hard work put in by those responsible for its upkeep.
