Pine Rivers Memorial Bowls ClubPrint Page

The Memorial Bowls Club commemorates those who have served in conflicts in which Australia has been involved. 

The Pine Rivers Memorial Bowls Club was formed in 1948 and was located at Gympie Road Strathpine directly opposite the Country Club Hotel (now known as the 4 Mile Creek Hotel). The Club remained at this location for the following 30 years with a small but dedicated membership, bowling with limited success, and generally remained an outer Brisbane, Country Style Bowls Club. In the late 70s and early 80s, with the help of the slogan ‘Move to Little Aspley’, Brisbane saw a population shift from the inner suburbs to this area and to cater for the population growth, a large shopping complex was needed in Strathpine. Westfield Shopping Management was awarded the project and purchased the Club and property to build what we now know as Strathpine Centre.

The Club took up residence at its current location in Bray Park in 1984 which was seen as being the centre of the population growth area with predominately married couples and young families moving in daily.
