Port Stephens West Ward Councillor Giacomo Arnott told News Of The Area, “I’m thrilled to see Raymond Terrace Bowling Club making such a huge investment in Raymond Terrace.

“Our town is bursting with potential and I’ve spent my adult life telling this to anyone who will listen, and I’m glad that it’s a community-based business that’s getting the ball rolling.

“The construction and ongoing jobs that this will create will be critical for employment locally, and the events, tourists, and visitors that it will bring here will be welcomed by every business in town.”
Mr Arnott said investors should “look no further than Raymond Terrace”.

“This town is perfectly located between Maitland and Newcastle and the M1, and really is the perfect place to invest,” he said.

The investment is set to provide an increase of jobs in Raymond Terrace and see the town well positioned to cater to increased inbound flights into the region as well as accommodating competitors for bowling tournaments.
