Lawn Bowling & Ice Cream Social

You are invited to join us at the Vancouver Lawn Bowling Club in Queen Elizabeth Park for an evening of fun and hopefully sun! Come lawn bowl and enjoy Rain or Shine ice cream.

Lawn bowling is a sport with many traditions. Like curling, there are a few rules, a number of conventions, and a reliance on fair play and sportsmanship. Experienced lawn bowlers will lead us through the rules and a few games! No experience needed.
