JOCK LAWSON AND THE YALLOURN BOWLING CLUB
This news report, regarding the opening of the new bowling green at Yallourn, was unearthed in the ‘Morwell Advertiser’ in 1936, nearly 80 years ago. It was a red-letter day in the history of Yallourn.
The origins of the Yallourn Bowling Club can be traced back to correspondence, from the General Superintendent (Mr Bridge), as early as 1927 regarding the possibility of the construction of a six-rink bowling green in the town.
