25 July 2026 | Bellville Bowls Club
What an incredible day!
Our very first Bern Foundation Fundraiser brought together an amazing group of people who came to support us.
The day kicked off with a fun-filled afternoon on the greens at Bellville Bowls Club. From experienced bowlers to complete first-timers, everyone embraced the challenge with plenty of laughs, great sportsmanship and a healthy dose of friendly competition.
Things became even more exciting with our Corner-to-Corner Challenge. This quickly became one of the highlights of the day as participants lined up to test their accuracy and skill. It didn’t matter whether you had never played bowls before—the competitive spirit came alive, with everyone eager to claim bragging rights!
After working up an appetite on the greens, everyone enjoyed delicious hamburgers before gathering for an entertaining afternoon packed with activities.
The celebrations continued with:
🎁 Prize Giving
🎟️ Raffles
🎱 Bingo
🔨 Auction
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our sponsors and supporters, we had some fantastic prizes on offer, creating plenty of excitement throughout the afternoon and evening.
More importantly, every ticket purchased, raffle entered and auction bid placed helped raise valuable funds for the Bern Foundation. These funds will support our work in providing opportunities, resources and hope to those who need it most.
Events like these remind us that when a community comes together, amazing things happen.
