The Berkeley Lawn Bowling Club has been continuously active since its founding on September 1, 1928. It was incorporated as a non-profit organization on March 22, 1963...
Dr. J. W. Henderson and his friend H. J. Haney helped establish the first lawn bowling green with the help of the local Rotary Club. The first green - on Allston Way - was donated to the city by the Haney family. The City gave the Haneys $10.00 to make the deal legally binding. After the property was donated, the Rotary Club gave the City $1,000.00 to help pay for the cost of building the green.
