Positive feedback;   Last weekend I was in Wellington and met a golfer. I said “have you ever played at Dannevirke?” “A number of times, it’s a really good course” was the response, “we used to drive past it, thinking it’s just another country course. Now we stop on our way to the Bay to have a round”.


I’ve also seen a post on the Whats on facebook page from one of our Rarangi visitors, “we all had a great weekend. Credit to Dannevirke and their hospitality. It was enjoyed by all”.


These are not random comments, we are hearing them more frequently. It’s a credit to everyone from the greens staff, the various committees and the members. Regards Stephen.


The forecast for the week end is not that good, but then again weather forecasting can be pretty average on occasions as well. Lets just wait and see what Saturday brings. If you get to play a match over the week end, good luck. 


Good Golfing👍
