Stunning weather for Short Jack Tournament

You know you are at a Northwest Division event when lawn bowlers run for the SPF 50 and long sleeves in 80 degree weather.

The first tournament of the season brought out 16 pale bowlers to face the sun and their opponents in the Short Jack Tourney.  With every jack placed at 21 meters there were heads both large and small to be seen. 

Players included veterans and novices from Portland, Tacoma, King City and Jefferson Park clubs. 
Finishing in 1st Place were Chris Davis (JP) with Kane Tobin (Tacoma).   2nd went to Joe Maser and Gene Maier (Portland) with a bit of backup from Chris Krogh and David Mack (KC).  Nancy and Kevin Nishikawa (JP) took 3rd, beating vet/novice team of Philip Cookson and Roscoe Pershall (PDX).
