After years of dealing with a broken-down, rusting chain link fence, the Mount Dora Lawn Bowling Club membership voted to replace the fence thereby creating curb appeal and, hopefully, reducing vandalism incidents.
President Beth Forbes appointed club members Bob and Tracy Wulbrecht to get bids and supervise the installation. Beth successfully secured a $3000 grant from the Mount Dora Community Trust to defray costs. The Mount Dora Community Trust, established in September 1972 is a tax-exempt charitable organization. The Trust provides financial support for numerous public, educational, charitable and benevolent projects and purposes.
The fence was installed in early March. Tracy then spearheaded a landscaping project of native plants and flowers to provide further beautification of the facility
The club also reports a small book entitled "A History of the Mount Dora Lawn Bowllng Club" was written by the club's historian, Jim Laux. The book documents many interesting aspects of the club since founded in 1928. Contact Beth Forbes via e-mail at mdlbc1989
