Happy Belated 80th Birthday to Denise Hamilton who had her special day on the 8th May, she was born in 1946 in Richmond, and was bought up in St Kilda with her brother and sister. Denise enjoyed playing Netball starting at the age of 8 years. Then later in the years ahead she moved to Bunyip, she became a member of the Drouin bowls club joining in January 1999 and has been a member for 26 years, being her one and only club. Denise also had a go at Indoor bowls, doing very well she won the Ladies Singles.
Denise has been a very competitive bowler and has won many club events as well as doing well in Pennant teams and other bowling tournaments around the Gippsland area.
Denise and Dennis were in the mixed pairs for the Victorian State team which was held at Bendigo, they got down to the last 8 on two occasions and lost by 1 shot twice. Denise also partnered Cole Jeffrey in the mixed pairs and also did very well.
Being a good club person she assisted in Selection Committees, and was always on hand when needed. She also enjoyed making goodies for the catering events, mainly Tournaments.
A valuable member of the club.
