Our Generous Sponsors
Dunbar Lawn Bowling Club is a community-based, not-for-profit society funded primarily from membership fees. However, we are very fortunate to have in our community a number of businesses that take a genuine interest in sponsoring healthy, life-long, outdoor activities in the Dunbar neighbourhood.

Donations
Our club operates on premises within Memorial Park West administered by the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation (BPR). We serve as the custodians of the BPR's premises and devote the bulk of our membership fees to doing so.
​
If you would like to make a donation to assist in the upkeep of this piece of Memorial Park West, you may do so by bank e-transfer to dunbarbowling@gmail.com or by cheque sent to our mailing address. Your donation will be put to good use in maintaining one of Dunbar's most picturesque green spaces and its original 1928 clubhouse.
