History

It was in the year of 1889 that the Station Master of Bowral Railway, Mr Copeland Bennett, had the foresight to see the need for a Bowling Club in Bowral. After the first meeting on 6th March 1889, it was decided to form a committee with Mr Thomas Cope (Nurseryman) offering an acre of land adjoining his nursery to build the first Bowling Club. This land was on the corner of Rose and Jasmine Streets, Bowral.
