The Bowen Building Centre sponsored the Irly Spring Swing at the golf course that was held Sunday, June 3, at the Bowen Golf Club with 120 playing in the Texas Scramble event.

The weather decided to cooperate this past Sunday while 115 runners, walkers and mom's with babies in strollers made their way across Bowen Island for Aaron's Run.

On June 9, Bowen's shores will be inundated with over 100 sailboats eagerly awaiting the 24th annual Round Bowen Race to commence at 10 a.m.

The Bowen Island Fastpitch League is a quarter of the way through season 27 and the changing of the guard that began last season with the Digger's historic triumph continues.

There will be more than wandering deer and bossy Canada Geese on the roads this Sunday morning at 9.

Sometimes a simple approach to life and sport can be very rewarding. This is certainly the case with Aaron's Run on Sunday, June 3. Participants don't wear numbers, but instead sport a coloured ribbon to identify distance.

A cherry tree blooms, daffodils show their heads and potted plants stand at the guard rail on Miller Road at Terminal Creek.

Last Friday, 7:43 a.m. A splinter of sunshine by some miracle of refraction squeezed through my Vancouver basement bedroom window, blazed across my cheek and cut a direct line to the baseball bat in my closet.

The sun was shining and the golf course was in fantastic shape on Saturday, April 7 , for the 2012 Island Masters held at the Bowen Island Golf Club.

In the middle of January, a group of 43 participants (walkers/runners) and eight Sun Run leaders started a 13-week-journey for the Intraining Sun Run clinic. The goal was the 10 km Sun Run event which occurred Sunday, April 15.
