What's On 20 June 2023

Evening all,
Saturday 22nd July; 11am card draw. Duty this week is Craig & Norm Evans. Please continue with Wiffin Cup and Sattrup & Brannigan matches. The Presidents Cup draw has not been produced yet, so we can clear some matches from the two competitions currently in play.
Saturday 5th August; a reminder of our SHB 27 Hole Strokeplay Tournament. Thanks to Brad Dippie, for the poster he has loaded onto our club facebook page. Lunch has been organised, with Barbara and Majken kindly offering their services. We require please some helpers to put an evening meal out around 6pm. In regards to this meal, as you are aware, we all well treated when we visit our country clubs for the Rosebowl competition It is our turn to reciprocate that generosity. We ask that members bring dinner food please, not packets of biscuits. Caseroles, Savory dishes, salads, cold meats, bacon & egg pies, vegetables, breads etc. Please advise Captain Mike what you are bringing, so he can answer questions about what else could be required. Thanks
Matariki; Thanks to the 50 players who turned out for last Fridays event. A clean cut with 25 Pakeha and 25 Maori players (thanks Takapau for your attendance). Bragging rights goes to the Pakeha players with a 29.3 aggregate versus the Maori aggregate of 26.5. A great day, with plenty of bluff and banter.
Rules Course; Following the cancellation of the 2023 Rules Course due to Cyclone Gabrielle in February, the Hawkes Bay Golf Referees Association is very pleased to advise you that the Association will be running the 2023 Rules Course commencing on Tuesday 29th August at Hastings Golf Club.
If we get the predicted showers of rain and on Saturday the course will be back to square one in regards to wet under foot. Please be careful where you take your trundlers etc, so as to minimize damage on the course
Good Golfing
