Members of the Beverly Hills Lawn Bowling Club enjoyed spring outdoors in this photograph from the May 1, 1980, issue of the Park Labrea News. The game was very popular, according to the accompanying article. Then-club president Allen Dewhirst described it as “more social than golf and less strenuous than tennis.” The club still exists and offers lessons by appointment. For information, visit bowlnow.org. The city of Beverly Hills has also reopened many of its recreation and sports activities including tennis, pickleball, sand volleyball and youth sports. For information, visit beverlyhills.org/bhrec.
