Bowls Newsletter - 11/02/24
Message From the President
Metropolitan Bowls Feedback
In the previous two newsletters I have published MBA questions seeking feedback on current Conditions of Play. The committee discussed possible dates at the last meeting. Again, I stress that whatever date is selected it will not suit everyone. In such cases I encourage you to share your thoughts and opinions with me or other committee members.
In this week’s newsletter a link has been included to a survey which has two sections. The first is seeking a response to selected dates for a face-to-face discussion. The second provides a series of questions for written feedback for those who prefer to do that or cannot join a discussion.
