The Sisk Park Bocce Ball club completed another successful season with its annual potluck awards party at Sisk Park April 3.

Certificates for $20, $15, and $10 redeemable at the Palo Verde and Cottonwood Country Club restaurants and Pro Shops were presented to players in the top three teams in each division. Six lucky persons received $25 cash as part of the club’s 50-50 raffle; 10 other attendees drawn at random also received $5 certificates.

Five new officers were elected for the coming year: Ray Parfitt, president; Jim Roberts, vice president; Jane Cambridge, secretary; Diane Severa, treasurer; Beth Derheim, division director. Returning officers: Harry and Sharon Bicchieri, social directors; Sue Donovan, interclub director; Paul Hester, equipment manager; Gary Vacin, publicity director; Irene D’Aloisio, past president.
