Please put all names in, not just someone's four, so a partial draw can be done before the day. Tree Felling: Work has begun on felling the Pines on the right-hand side of number 13 (Lands End). Two messages we have for members playing the course. One, if the red tape is across by the ladies' number 13 tee, please putt out on number 12, then cross the Railway line, and walk down to the 14th tee (yes, past the 17th tee and behind the 16th green) and proceed from there. If you are in a competition record a score that equates to 2 stableford points on the par 5. Two, when felling is not in progress, but trimming and removing logs is, the fairway will be open, but there will be an electric type fence running the length of the hole. We request members do not cross this line if chainsaws or diggers are in use. It will be deemed GUR so play another ball from the point of entry, but please do not go and retrieve your ball and put yourself in danger of injury by chainsaw or machinery. Greenwood 2025; Report from Captain Craig Nash, Our Greenwood cup team fell agonisingly close to history late on Sunday afternoon. Playing Hastings on their home course in the final round to decide the Cup winner, we went down 8/2. Dannevirke’s last title was in 1964 and since then, this was as close as we have got to taking it out. We started the weekend in fourth place and performed outstandingly well to defeat Maraenui, Hawkes Bay and reigning two year champions Onga Onga leaving us an opportunity in the deciding match. Credit goes to Hastings who were solid at home and took out many close matches down the stretch. I’m very proud of the effort put in by our team of Pat Harold, Brad Truesdale, Rhys Harold, Angus Findlay, Willie Harold, Chris Mason, Clay Lochead, Syd Hikawai, Brad Dippie, Thomas Kuggeleijn, Lance Hambrook and myself. Our men proudly wearing the Dannevirke Golf Club crest prepared themselves to be in the best physical and mental condition they could giving 120% on the course which is all and more than we asked for. We take this result, we grow stronger and will be back next year. We love the game we play and the opportunity to represent Dannevirke. On behalf of our team, we want to show our appreciation to our management team of Pete Gregory and Bryan Burt, the club members who followed and caddied over the two weekends and our overall gratitude to the committee and members of the Dannevirke Golf Club who support us to compete in this historic competition - thank you all. Craig Nash Constitution; ( Draft) Legislation changes in 2022, meant all sports and social Clubs had to update their Constitutions by April 2026. Golf NZ provided a template and Secretary Bailey and President Peter have gone through it page by page adding and deleting. A copy (22 pages) is attached to tonight's What's On. If you have an interest in this please go through it and if you have any matters of concern, please contact Bailey via email at dannevirkegolf@xtra.co.nz. The Constitution will be an Agenda item at the AGM. We can possibly adopt it as is at the AGM, or make changes as minuted at the meeting and hold a Special General Meeting before 30th April 2026 to adopt it. Adoption at the AGM would be the simple option, but not the only one. Plenty of reading tonight if you want to peruse the Draft Constitution. Saturdays Drummond Cup competition is always popular, as it proves most of us carry far too many Clubs. Three clubs and a putter and the netts will be amazing. Thanks Gemma & Zane for producing What's On for the past two weeks in my absence. Have a great weekend👍 Bryan Burt Club Scribe
