21 Apr 2018 - Brockham Bowls Club
Brockham Bowls Club (Taster sessions)
Our friendly Bowls Club is situated in a unique position down by the River Mole, off Mill Hill Lane (south). The outdoor season runs from April to September, and there are also various social events throughout the year.
The members are busy gearing up for the new season. We run Club nights on Thursdays, when members can either join in playing a game or come along to watch and have a drink. There are also more formal internal matches most Tuesday evenings. We play Club matches weekends and midweek against other local teams, in addition to a number of internal Club competitions. So there is plenty going on for members to select from.
We are running 3 taster sessions on Saturday mornings for prospective new members who wish to give bowls a try – 21st and 28th April, and 5th May (including light refreshments) from 10am to 12.00 noon. All you need are flat soled shoes, we will provide the other equipment and expertise.
Bowls is a fun yet competitive game for all ages, gender and ability, why not come along and meet members of the Club on one or all of the above Saturday taster sessions without any obligation. If you cannot make any of these 3 Saturdays, but would like to know more, please contact the Club Captain, number available here.

02 Sep 2018 - Buckland Pond Clearance and Village Tidy
On Sunday September 2nd, at 10am, we are hoping villagers will turn out to take part in this summer’s pond clearance and village tidy.
Please meet us by the Pond in time for a short safety briefing at 10am from Simon Elson, a Reigate Area Conservation Volunteer who leads our activities for the Village Pond and Green.
If you are keen to help in the pond, bring waders (if you can), a spade, a bucket (or plastic trug) and a wheelbarrow.
There will be tasks suitable for volunteers who would prefer
to help with tasks on dry land, so come along armed with your favourite gardening gloves and hand tools to help.
If you do not feel you can make it to the pond on the 2nd but are willing to volunteer to help to undertake other tasks on our “to do list” please let us know.
