New Bowling Green
We are delighted to be able to announce the Grand Opening of the Shepparton Villages Bowling Green at Tarcoola Village.
When we began the fundraising appeal for this amenity we did not think it possible that we would see it completed so soon.
After receiving help from 428 generous donors we arrived at our goal, almost before we could turn around and were greatly helped by the John T Reid Charitable Trusts and William Angliss Charitable Fund, who provided the final icing on the donor cake. We thank them for their kindness and support, as well as all donors and those who assisted by attending our special fundraising functions. We first held the Kitty Club Dinner Dance, the Special Tax Appeal, the Christmas Appeal and finally the River Sounds Picnic on the River to support the necessary funding.
When you see the new, spacious, all weather ‘Green’ you will also see that we have added to the Tarcoola Village Activities Centre on the east side, adjacent to the Bowling Green. We have included a new kitchen plus a behind glass viewing area for the comfort of those who want to cheer on a team, or just admire the skill of the resident bowlers or instructors. The extra area will complete the comfort of visiting players from our other two villages, as well as for the ‘Tarcoola-ites’. There will be a shaded outdoor viewing area to complete the picture.
This area will become a superb focus for our Lifestyle & Leisure Programmes and will attract residents to exercise in the open air with family, friends and visitors from the Rodney Park and Kialla Gardens Villages.
Your support makes a difference. Shepparton Villages will gratefully receive any gift you make. Remember, your donations are tax deductible.
