The sun shone brilliantly on Wraysbury Bowls Club as the 25th anniversary was celebrated on Sunday, Sept 3, 2023, with the annual Ladies v Gents match in the morning followed by a champagne & buffet lunch then some fun games on the green.
The lunch was attended by a good contingent of current players and past members and friends of the club….. and importantly some who were at the club in its early days - Nancy Fuller, Avril Pearce, Trevor Dobson and Margaret Perkins who, reprising her catering prowess from the early days, prepared a superb buffet spread. 
Club chairman Graham Sinclair, who himself played his part in the groundwork which allowed the rink area to be built back in 1998, gave the toast and spoke about the role that the late Bob Marshall played as a founding father and driving force in the club’s formation.
Graham highlighted the clubhouse which was named ‘the Marshall Pavilion’ when it opened in 1999 after being built by Glyn Larcombe using timbers to match the Windmill.
Glyn, who is now the club’s President, was there for the milestone day.
It was an enjoyable occasion and with the enthusiasm of the current committee and members, Wraysbury Bowls Club looks forward to many more years as a popular village amenity.
