Several friends and former club members returned for the special day.

Baker began playing bowls at Lake Bolac in 1965/66, where she is still a very active member.

As an accomplished bowler she has won numerous titles at club and regional levels.

Baker has won thirteen Club Singles Championships, also winning the State Singles Title in 1974.

She has also held several executive positions within the Lake Bolac and District Bowling Club and was awarded with a richly deserved life membership in 2002/03.

President Karen Gleeson presented Baker with a gift and floral bouquet in honour of her golden bowling anniversary.

She received best wishes from the club for many more happy years of bowling.
