I mean that currently lawn bowling in the US attracts elderly people who don't have much disposable income and who's health causes retention to be an issue at clubs. Broadening the demographics increases revenue and increases retention rate which generating an additional income stream to grow the sport. Currently the US is not highly ranked internationally, increasing the numbers of players will increase the level of game play.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648613329142670080.post-32070145264834266232010-10-05T14:27:48.985-07:002010-10-05T14:27:48.985-07:00"redefine the demographics"...you mean f..."redefine the demographics"...you mean from old folks to alcoholics and 'tards? wow..now I get it!Mick Von Cawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685157717840891543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648613329142670080.post-8556764665804340922010-10-05T13:40:13.188-07:002010-10-05T13:40:13.188-07:00You clearly have trouble with comprehension; the b...You clearly have trouble with comprehension; the bill helps redefine the demographics for the sport.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648613329142670080.post-31665187767611911172010-10-05T09:27:30.985-07:002010-10-05T09:27:30.985-07:00An extremely stupid story.

Lawn bowlers in the United States have stated that this is the most important thing to ever happen in this country.

Schwarzenegger!<br />Effective 1/1/2011 lawn bowls clubs in CA can have liquor licenses- a new era for Lawn Bowling in the US!"
