To supplement your help, the club will be seeking space in the press, on local radio and Glos Events sites. If you have access to any of these please let me know.
Additionally, we will need some help on the day.
If you have enough elementary knowledge of the game to help supervise a roll up and give visitors a fun experience please let me know.
If that is not you, we are also looking for engaging people who can distribute flyers to unsuspecting potential bowlers at the adjacent Suffolk Traders market.
If you can help with any of the above please let Allen know at [email protected] Don’t wait to be asked!
