Famous last words “I think it will be fine on Thursday”, I said!
Well it was as wet on course as I have seen it, and unfortunately the Presidents v. Captain’s trophy wasn’t contested. We hope the Match Committee may reschedule it, so ‘watch this space’ …
For the keen (stupid?) golfers who played the 16 hole single Stableford competition, a measly 23 points won me the day, from Pam Barker (22), Anne Geddes and Jan Deane.
But THANK YOU to all of you who turned up for golf, or games, lunch and the trophy presentation. The room looked great with flowers (blue and gold) by Leah Boyd and Di Mellen, and chocolates supplied by the President and Captain. And I do appreciate that everyone was so cooperative and understanding about the golfing decisions....
Major trophies presented were the “Saturday Ladies Cup” for stroke rounds during the calendar year 2015: won by Stephne Whiteway to much applause!
The Jean Derrin Jug for the Most Reduced Handicap in the calendar year 2015: won by Leonie Carroll. Thank you to Noela McMurray our handicapper who donated and presented the trophy and a prize of a beautiful plant to a surprised and delighted Leonie! (see photo).
Genelle Almaide has conducted the ‘Birdies and Gobblers’ Board for 15 years and has handed it over this year to Pam Barker who has volunteered to administer it. The new board is now ‘ready for action’ in the locker room!
Next Week’s Monthly Medal Round
The draw is in the locker room and on the computer for next week’s Medal Round. (11th February).
Any additions or withdrawals must be done through the Captain please.
Let’s hope for some kinder weather…
10 Hole Competitions:
This competition will be available every Tuesday after the 18-hole competition. Cost is $10 for 10 holes (1-4,13-18) and designed for newer players to play a manageable game, or anyone not ready or willing to tackle the full 18 holes.
Please enter via the computer (or call the pro shop) in the slots immediately after the 18 hole competition. You will need to start promptly after the 18 hole field to avoid clashing at the 13th hole!
Open Day Competitions
Don’t forget the Goulburn Open Day on Wednesday 17th February – a great day of golf, morning tea and a Smorgasbord (hot/cold) lunch for $13. Entries close on Monday 8th Feb. ($25). A few names are down – if you’re interested contact Chris Hill as car-pooling may be a possibility.
Many other Open Day Flyers are in the locker room for your perusal.
Here’s to better weather! I'm over getting drenched!!
Cheers,
Barb Clayton
