The Club over the recent Summer and Winter indoor seasons appear to be missing 5 White Jacks. If anyone has a White Jack in their locker, could they please return them to the office asap.
The cost to the Club for each individual Jack is £15.00, and if the Jacks are not returned, then the Club will have to consider a deposit and return scheme when White Jacks are being used.

Bedford Borough Bowling Club is a private members’ club, which has been an active part of Bedford’s sporting activity for one hundred years - 2011 was the Club’s Centenary Year.
The Club provides for outdoor and indoor bowling. The main outdoor green is an all-weather surface of six rinks, but can be made into seven as the need arises. There are two further lawn rinks which were part of the original outdoor bowls setup, and are in use during the season. The indoor green has six rinks, and the surface was boarded by Dales in April 2010, complete with new underlay and carpet. (For photos of the installation go to ‘News’ and click on ‘Archive’).
Membership of the Club is open to the whole community. Those with a visual impairment or physical disability are welcome, and the Club hosts a Blind Club section.
We have a good car park adjacent to the buildings, and there is a well-stocked bar.
The Club participates in a variety of club, County and National competitions, both outdoor and indoor, and welcomes.
