- What's News? - - Our pennant sides are all going very well at the midway point of the season with the men's premier league side sitting second (one point off top spot). All of our seven men's teams are currently sitting in the top four of their grade with our Metro 3sw team on top and undefeated. Our men's midweek Premier 1 side is sitting top and the thursday ladies Premier 1 side is also sitting top. What a great first half of the year.
- After a whirlwind return to the city of churches new member Brady Slater has made the decision to return to England to his beautiful fiancee Kerry. We all wish "Mooey" the best of luck upon his return and hope to one day see him donning the Hurricanes shirt again.
- Coming Events - An exciting year lies ahead for the Marion Bowling Club. Although it is early our season is beginning to take shape due to the hard work of both the men's and women's sections of the board, as our events are finalised they will be added to this section as announced.

- President's Chatter - Hello to all members Season 2008/09 is now upon us, both the Men’s and Ladies Facilities are now in full swing preparing for another successful pennant season. Both Facilities have recruited well, I welcome you to our Club on behalf of management and hope you enjoy our friendship and facilities. Seven years ago a young man by the name of Ashley Klose joined our club as a 15 year older still playing cricket at weekends. With a lot of help and coaching from several of our members he has achieved State representation in all age groups has won State titles and is now a regular member of the Senior State Team. Because of his many good qualities, his bowling skills and his ability to make himself available to members of both Facilities, attributes required for any person to be a Club Captain. I am thrilled that Ashley has accepted the position of Cub Captain of the Marion Bowling Club and congratulate him on behalf of the members and the Board of Management. I look forward to you all attending the Opening Day luncheon on the 21st September 12.30 for 1.00pm start, weather permitting we should get 11 ends of bowling in. Our Patron the Mayor of Marion Felicity Lewis and State Parliament Representative Chris Hannah will be attending to launch the 2008-09 season. If you or a friend is looking for a new or second hand car go see our major sponsor Adrian Brien Automotive or if you are looking for car servicing or mechanical work try our sponsor Peter Laxton in Byre Ave Warradale. Good bowling to all President Jim Bellingham
