We have now named our newly formed travelling bowlers group Maclean Highlanders. Congratulations to David Bryden on winning the competition for naming our group. David will receive his travelling bowler’s shirt for free. Shirts are under design with BLK and we are awaiting the design to be sent to us before we move ahead with production.

A reconciliation of the travelling bowlers account is posted on the noticeboard for all to see.
