Retirement; I read today that Dave Murdock is finishing up as reporter for the weekly Bush Telegraph. On behalf of the Golf Club I wish to acknowledge the coverage Dave has given our club over the years. His passion for sport, means he has often come out to get a story and photos before or during tournaments, Club Championships etc. Thank you Dave for your service to the community
The week end looms and the forecast is winter like. If the weather looks good, just do it😊.
Good Golfing👍
