Ladies; The ladies golf will be hosting the 18 Hole American Foursomes Tournament on the 30th March a 10am tee off. We have five carts booked for the day. Our thanks to Helen Martin for her sponsorship.We were pleased to host 15 ladies from Napier the Wednesday before last, we had so many compliments on our course, thanks to our green keepers! They are returning next week as you know their course was ravaged by the cyclone. Thanks Val.


Management Committee;  The seismic test for the club house is back, and currently sits at 40%. The required standard currently is 33%, so at this point we don't require any immediate action. The committee has been advised that a geotech test (the ground the club house is built on) could be carried out, and if we scored well here, the overall rating could be as good as 60%. All in all, we have a well built, safe club house.


Pongaroa 27 hole Tournament;  Thank you to the players who went out last Sunday to the Pongaroa 27 hole Rose Bowl event. Our club is totally committed to this series of tournaments, so please, if you say you are going to attend, please do so. Baling at 9pm Saturday night is unacceptable.  We still have commitments to Cape Turnagain 27 hole, our own 27 hole event, and the Takapau 30 hole event.


Great course conditions at present, so come on out and have a round


Good golfing,
