"We have a couple of new members, some new bookings and from recent inquiries are expecting more," Mr Boothby said.
"But all this is a work in progress."
Club administrator Michelle Fallow said, "we’re very encouraged by it".
Both said the aim was to keep charges reasonable.
"We don’t want to fleece people but we do need enough to cover heat, maintenance and so on," Mr Boothby said.
"Having more groups using our facilities is a great chance for us getting other events flowing from that."
The Star understands that at least one of the groups now using the bowling club facilities has moved from the Baptist Church hall, now for sale and offering tenants only month-by-month rentals.
In May, members voted to sell, but at the recent annual meeting members of the club overturned the resolution.
Some said they felt they had been given insufficient information to make an informed vote at the May meeting.
