Well, who are 'The Patrons'?
|
|
|
This seems to be the first
question our members are asked when the Patrons’ Association visits a Club, and, as the Association has been in existence
since 1974, we are just as surprised that you don’t already know about us as you seem to be by our visit.
So,
here we go
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Association’s primary
object was to “promote, foster and encourage the friendship and fellowship that comes naturally from friendly competition
in the game of Bowls”.
We still hold
to this ideal, but now tend to concentrate our efforts on the task of raising all affiliated clubs’ awareness of the
County Benevolent Fund, and of the help that it gives to those old and needy bowlers who are less fortunate than ourselves.
We are a sort of ‘Lords Taverner’s Association’ of the Kentish bowling fraternity, and have taken the Benevolent
Fund under our wing in an effort to increase its funding so that it may, in turn, increase its giving.
Through the
generosity of one of our members, Richard Cook of Horton Kirby B.C., we have been able to resurrect the Benevolent Fund Cup
Tournament, which was founded in 1932 and discontinued in 1939. This has enabled us to add a further £700 or so to our regular
annual donation of £600 and some £800 from our ‘Bertie Bassett’ collecting Box.
We would
like to do more, and you can help by becoming a member of the Association.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We are always happy to visit any club in the County,
particularly those which have an anniversary to celebrate and from which we would hope to raise a little income for the ‘Fund’.
Looking back in our Records I see that there are some affiliated clubs, particularly our smaller country clubs, which we have
never visited – well, you only have to invite us you know and at no cost to your club.
So,
there you are then.
That’s who
the ‘Patrons’ are and what they do, and I would be only too pleased to hear from you.
Hon. Secretary, R. G. W. Snell, Little Haxted, Selling
Road, Old Wives Lees, Canterbury, Kent. CT4 8BH.
