Attendees enjoy ASGA’s SA Lawn Bowls networking event

There was plenty of laughter and cheer at the inaugural ASGA SA Lawn Bowls networking evening, which recently took place at the Adelaide Bowling Club.

The event coincided with day one of the Adelaide 500 which was held within two minutes’ walking distance of the bowling venue. Loud supercar engines and Christmas party revellers at the Club only added to the good-time buzz had by all that attended.

With many first timers at lawn bowling attending the evening, there was no formal scoring or trophies awarded. Instead, everyone proved a winner by getting in plenty of practice for next year’s event where a winning team will be crowned.

ASGA president Mick Harrold said he was pleased at the turnout and for the opportunity to meet with ASGA members and fellow industry personnel.

Harrold addressed the group at the end of the evening, highlighting the importance of the sign industry in terms of revenue, employment and innovation.

“We’re innovative, and we’re a big industry. We are bigger than we think we are,” he said.

“Employees generally don’t choose signage as a career but many that end up here stay in the industry because they love it. It’s a great industry to be involved in and we should be proud to be a part of it and promote it more. We should tell other people that we’re proud of what we do.”

ASGA also thanked Orafol for its support of the event and added that it will be hosting more networking events in 2023, with details to be announced in the new year.
