About Thistle Lawn Bowling Club
Thistle Lawn Bowling Club is a facility on Beaufort Street in the University Heights neighbourhood of London. It serves community members from young adults to seniors. The club provides facilities and promotes lawn bowling, though its mandate includes other activities determined by its Board of Directors. Historically, the club offered tennis, curling, and a five-pin bowling alley, but it currently focuses on lawn bowling. Established in 1879, the club was incorporated in 1903 and identifies itself as the oldest lawn bowling club in Canada. It moved to its current location from a previous site on Piccadilly Street in 1983. The organization merged its men's and women's executive bodies in 1979 and received various grants for infrastructure and equipment upgrades between 1975 and 1991.
