Club day is Saturday 1:00pm until 4:00pm and you are invited!
Here is why the sport of Petanque or Boules is such a great game to play
The boules are not expensive and last a lifetime
Little or no special preparation is needed for the playing surface
You can play almost anywhere with little or no preparation
Everything you need to play fits into a small box
No great strength or athleticism is needed
People of all ages can compete on an equal basis
The rules and strategy of the game are not hard to learn
It is a wonderful centerpiece for more general social activity such as picnics, camping trips or family outings
. . . And this is how you find us
