Hi all, I'm looking to purchase an indoor carpet bowls set for my residents and am at a loss as to where to purchase one. I have spent several hours looking on the internet to no avail, so am hoping someone can help me.
The set I'm looking for is in a large grey carry case on wheels, the set has two different sets of soft balls, one set green and the other set purple, a small black ball and a plastic floor mat. I recall it was around $500 (well worth every cent) if anyone can set me in the right direction to purchase a set I would be truly greatful.
Regards
Tania

Hi Tania, I can tell you how we bought one in the facility I worked for some time ago. We went to a place that sold carpets and bought a nylon remnant that suited our recreation room. Then we asked them to finish the edges professionally. We chose nylon (loop) because it is durable, light, inexpensive, and easy to roll and put it away when the game is over. This carpet has been in use for the past 10 years. Good luck!

I was hesitant at first to sign up for another website for activities, but I have been pleasantly surprised. It has been fun to search all you have to offer and during Covid-19 your site has helped me and our other Life Enrichment Coordinator so much. I truly appreciate all you do and provide. It just gets better all the time. Our residents love the word searches because they are so bold and clear. We have used many of your ideas and I’m so grateful! Thank you!
