The opportunity was taken to support a fundraising event at Scotts Head for five-year-old Malu River (also known affectionately as 'Mungbean') to enable her to have treatment in Switzerland for a brain tumour.
Urunga President, Jean Dew presented Scotts Head representative for Mungbean, Kate Adams, with a donation of $100 from Urunga Womens Bowling Club.
In the final of the Major/Minor Pairs, played on September 29, Helen Hoffman and Ros Hancock (picture right) defeated Brenda Fane and Sally Welsh.

A warm welcome to new member Chris Buntine who has recently moved to Urunga and many happy returns to Margaret Baldwin who celebrated her birthday last week.
- Following surgery to try and remove a very large tumour in late June, Malu was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive brain cancer; Choroid Plexus Carcinoma. To help cover the costs of subsequent treatment in Switzerland, Malu’s parents have set up a gofundme account where people can make donations. Please consider aiding Malu in her journey by continuing to this fund. Go to www.gofundme.com/maluwild
