Les Dun joined the Club in 1964 at just 26 years of age. Les was honoured in 2018 with life membership for all the work he had done for the club as he celebrated his 80th birthday and 50 years at Glen Eden. Les was a top indoor bowler, gaining Representative honours in 1978 and a trip to Australia. He has 2 NZ titles along with his15 club titles. Not bad at outdoor either, with 24 club titles.

Les was President from 1993 -95 and spent many years on the Executive, noted for his time on Social with particular emphasis on selling raffles. In later years Les was our Mr Clean Up man and took care of much of the lawnmowing duties, and his support of the club continued after his death with the club being names as a beneficiary of his estate.

He is remembered and sadly missed by so many who have known him throughout the decades, and hence the club has named its anniversary tournament in his honour.
