Newtown Workingmen's Bowling Club is set to close at the end of this month, four years after surviving a joint police and Wellington City Council operation to close it.
A community drive is now underway to save it from demolition.
Club members unanimously agreed last month to close the club, which is on Town Belt land on Owen St, on May 31. The council aimed to get the club to demolish the building within six months of May 31, said spokesman Richard MacLean.
The council tried to close the club in 2017, after arguing it was creating multiple noise complaints and was being run as a cheap drinking hole rather than a sports club. By that point, membership was down to 24.
