Celebration week planned for Dean bowlers
A week of celebrations are planned on the Comely Bank green from Saturday 14-21 June. All welcome.
In the year 2000, when celebrating their milestone, Edinburgh City Council awarded the club a Civic Reception which was hosted by Lord Provost Eric Milligan.
At that time there was a membership of about 150 and while, like many clubs, numbers started to reduce with hard work and perseverance Dean are on the way back up and currently sit at just over 100 members.
The club are always looking for new members and a drive began on the annual Opening Day in April which was attended by Depute Lord Provost Lezley Marion Cameron and Councillors Vicky Nicolson and Max Mitchell.
Full Membership for a new member's first year is fixed at £50, doubling in the second year. Thereafter the value is decided at the club AGM. Social Membership is £40 annually.
The club has a strong coaching element within its membership and this mostly takes place on a Friday evening from 5.30-7pm.
