Caltex Sponsers A Bowls Weekend In Aberdeen

Tienie Appel of Volks Delta Aberdeen, a third generation Aberdonian, rganized the sponsorship of a bowling weekend in Aberdeen on the 15th and 16th November 2008, between Aberdeen, Graaff-Reinet, Murraysburg, Jansenville, addock, Middleburg and Somerset East. The sponsorship of the bowls tournament came from Caltex Eastern Cape Brand Marketers
and Volks Delta of Aberdeen. This was a first time sponsorship by Caltex to Aberdeen, where finance, advertising displays
and banners were provided. Clive Berlyn, a Director of Eastern Cape Brand Marketers, was instrumental in providing sponsorship for this event.
The two day event was a great success enjoyed by all the participants. The bowling was of a high standard, and the Aberdeen greens were at their very best. The
catering and the tea and luncheon venue was as usual most enjoyable.
Prizes to the winning teams were presented by Tienie Appel, who hopes that Caltex and Volks Delta will sponsor this event in 2009. A vote of sincere thanks was
given to Tienie Appel from the Aberdeen Bowling Club, and its guests.
