THE ROTARY CLUBS OF AVALON & WELLS

 

The 10th Annual Wells Charity Boules Tournament, to be held in Wells Market Place Sunday 11th July, 2010

supported by Rock House Dental Surgery & the Rotary Clubs of Avalon & Wells
It’s been an incredible 10 years since we first embarked on the Wells Charity Boules tournament and we’re back this year with sponsorship from Rock House Dental Surgery. 

The idea behind the boules tournament followed a trip to Nepal by a group of Rotarians from Avalon and Wells in 2000. We came back with the determination to raise money for The Nepal Trust to support the projects we’d seen, whilst having fun at the same time; hence the boules. Among the Rotary group was Richard Leworthy, of Rock House Dental Practice, who’s been a great asset on so many levels, not least in providing much needed dental care to the Nepalese villagers. We’ve subsequently revisited Nepal in 2007 and will be back again in Autumn this year to help with the rebuilding of Torpa Health Clinic.

Organised by the Rotary Clubs of Avalon and Wells, forty-eight teams, consisting of local families, businesses, Rotarians and Boules enthusiasts, will compete throughout the day, with play commencing at 9.30am and finishing at 5.30pm.
