The weather really tested the patience of all the region’s greenkeepers this past week, particularly in Yarraman.<\/p>\n

Yarraman\u2019s Rosalie Fours Carnival was a worry early on. At 8:00am last Saturday it looked a completely hopeless situation, but the rain abated and the greenkeepers staff and helpers soon had the green ready for a late start.<\/p>\n

And as things turned out, the three scheduled rounds were played that day.<\/p>\n

The greenkeeper was back out mowing and rolling at 4:00am on Sunday. and compliments were soon flowing thick and fast from the bowlers.<\/p>\n

Players for the Carnival came from as far away as Tenterfield, Toowoomba, Kallangur and Bribie Island.<\/p>\n

The Calcutta was exciting and some very competitive bidding<\/p>\n

Ray Chicken\u2019s composite Darling Downs team attracted the highest bidder.<\/p>\n

The multi-draw raffle was well supported by South Burnett business houses with a result that 46 very attractive prizes were in the draw.<\/p>\n

There were five rounds of fours, with prizes for all five rounds for the overall winners, runner ups and third placegetters.<\/p>\n

Conditions of the competition were that a team could only win one prize.<\/p>\n

Two teams went through the competition undefeated.<\/p>\n

Ray Chicken\u2019s team from Combined Darling Downs scored five wins and 115 points, while Max Postle\u2019s team from Lowood scored five wins and 99 points.<\/p>\n

An astute Tenterfield player collected the substantial Calcutta bonus.<\/p>\n
