Every year the BID company holds a new year launch to celebrate the finalising of the marketing options for the coming year and to celebrate the achievements of the previous year and the year yet to come.  In previous years the event was known as the brochure launch however with more and more business being conducted via the internet there has been less requirement for reliance on a brochure.  This year the 2020 year launch event was held at the Wellington Bowl and was kindly sponsored by The Threadwell family. The details of all the projects that the board agreed to fund was announced followed by a very lively and competitive game of bowls with prizes for the winning team and a prize for the highest individual score won by Philip Grey.
