Senior amateur sports in Oxford County is getting a financial boost, thanks to an endowment fund. The fund was created during the 2001 Canada Summer Games in London. The Oxford Community Foundation, once again, has doled out some of the interest from that fund. Money is going to lawn bowling clubs in Woodstock and Zorra for equipment. The Southgate Centre and Tillsonburg Seniors Centre is getting cash to refurbish their pool tables. OCF Executive Director, Keith Hudson, says it's small amounts of money that goes a long way. "They are thrilled. It's not a large amount, but for small groups like that, it allows them to do the repairs and maintenance that they would usually have to take out of membership fees, or go out and seek fundraising." Funds distributed: Embro-Zorra Lawn Bowling Club - clubhouse renovations $ 300 South Gate Centre - purchase of a pool table $ 400 Tillsonburg Seniors' Centre - refurbishment of a pool table $ 500 Woodstock Curling Club - certification course fees for 2 instructors $ 350 Woodstock Lawn Bowling Club - purchase of a freezer $ 400 TOTAL $1,950 The announcements were made at the OCF's 10th Annual General Meeting this week. They have also elected a new President - Tanya Murray is taking on the role.
