Fun and feasting at yesterday's bowls' event

A great afternoon was had by all who came to Buckhaven Community Centre to join in the bowls’ tournament.  The event was formally opened by Gavin Grant of Fife Libraries, Arts & Museums, who gave the audience a short history of the carpet bowls’ industry in Fife.  Information and sketchbooks had also been laid out by ceramicist Frances Priest and the potters involved in the project about the processes they used to create the bowls and also their inspiration.

Have a look on our Facebook page for more pics of the afternoon and also for the glorious feast available to keep the hardworking bowlers sustained!  Thanks to all who came along and participated in the first Buckhynd Braes Bools’ match.
