After 80 years located in downtown Lakeland, the City found it necessary to relocate our greens to a beautiful wooded location in Lake Parker Park. In addition, they have provided us with the most modern artificial turf green in North America.
The result is a very fast green with a wide draw. An unanticipated but most gratifying benefit resulted. Due to the ease of effort required to deliver the bowl,a number of our past members returned to the game. What a delight to play again with these old friends who had so recently thought that the game of lawn bowls was in their past.
As you can see, there is something here for everyone. Whether you are a Snowbird or a Lakeland area resident, a novice or a veteran of the game, we invite you to join us for a season of fun and competition.
