New member on tonight email list is Richard Howearth. Welcome back to golf Richard,

Saturday 21st July Card Draw 11.30am. Appreciate please if we can have the cards in by 11.20am. The Match Committee start getting the groups sorted for the 11.30 Tee Off, and when we think we are all sorted, down the drive comes another car or two after 11.30, wanting to be included. The Match Committee have decided late entries will be off the 5th Tee last, as many members dislike playing in a fives.

Saturday 28th July. Club Champs Round 1 Matchplay. My thanks to Steven Paewai for his assistance sorting the groups and arranging the draws for this years Championships. As I don't have scanning facilities on my home computer, I intend sending them through tomorrow from work. Hopefully my computer skills will allow this. There will be five sheets for the various grades. Note, a tee draw will not be included, (time restraint) but I will send a a What's On Special, Tee draw early next week.

Disappointed last week to hear that the world had stopped going around because the previous Saturdays cards had not been entered into the handicap system. Every member of our Committees are full paying volunteers, and ocasionally things don't happen over night. Thats life. We have checked and no one will be playing in a different grade in the Champs because of this..

Dannevirke Golf Club Facebook page. I beleive What's On is now appearing on the Club Facebook page, as well as All Things Dannevirke page . Thankyou to whoever is posting this.

Good to see Ryan Fox going well in the past couple of weeks, lets hope his form stays with him

Good Golfing, and plenty of practice before the Club Champs.

Latest news from the club

Evening all,
Annual General Meeting, A good muster of members attended last Mondays AGM, where the business section flew through, with finances in good heart, and obviously members are more than happy with the course, as no one raised any negative issues regarding the Club or the Course. Recognition of service in the form of Life Memberships were bestowed on Helen Martin, Max Charmley and Ian McKenzie. Speaking to these members were Gail Borlase, John Mackay and Ken Barnett. All three new Life Members have been members of the Club since the 70s or 80s, and since joining have spent countless years on Committees, I congratulate Helen, Max and Ian on an outstanding effort A list of the 2020 committee is attached for your interest. (It may be headed 2019, but it is in fact the 2020 list)
The Match committee are working on the 2020 programme. We have some dates through from GHB but not all, and April is a difficult month to programme around as this year both Easter and Anzac weekends fall in that month. With Anzac Day on a Saturday, Monday becomes an observed day, so we have a 4 day and a 3 day weekend within two weeks of each other
Saturday 14th December: Christmas Cheer 12 noon Shot Gun Start, $20 Entry fee. The entry sheet has plenty of names on it, looks like a good field. Marcus & Glen are again running their Hagggle, food and drinks hole, so come along one and all and enjoy the day
2020:
Saturday January 11th Summer Cup Qualifying (top 32)
Christmas Message. Wishing all members a safe and happy Christmas and New Year. If you are travelling, please do so safely. Enjoy your time with family and friends. If time allows, hit the fairways
Good Golfing,
Merry Christmas,
