Pastor Cathy Leicher of Thrive Church Parkdene was a guest speaker. She inspired the women with her talk about the seasons of a woman’s life.

“I would like to thank all the models who gave up their holiday to model at this special event,” said the event organiser, Erica Coetzer, from the Boksburg Bowling Club.

“The event couldn’t have been a success without sponsors like Aïda Estate, Eileen Weston Chalk Paint, Flowers & Garden Shed, Dashing Dogs, Ria van Dyk of Herbal Life, Tannie San of Baked Goods and Daleen Blignaut.”

The Bowling Club is looking for companies who would like to join them in hosting a bowling league.
