As most of you are aware, I intend to take the County
President's 2011 Tour
to Jersey to help celebrate
Surrey's Centenary year.
Provided I have sufficient support this will be from

the approval of both Bowls England and Bowls Jersey.
Arrangements are in hand with regard to accommodation
- mode of transport is likely to be by air.
I am arranging for 5 x 6 rink matches for the gentlemen
and 5 x 3 rink games for the ladies.
Your support for
this proposed tour would be greatly appreciated.
The costs are likely to be in the region of £550 per
person - final figures will be confirmed at
a later date.
To help successfully plan for this tour, I need to know
the numbers who are interested in joining the tour which
will then enable me to make firm arrangements. Please
contact me either by telephone on
01293 862260
or e-mail me at

number of Clubs around the County.

contacted over 100 Clubs recently and is keen to add to
his database of Clubs requiring fixtures. If your Club
is seeking additional or replacement fixtures then
please contact John on 07809 961538 daytime) or 01932
