Golf HB / Poverty Bay Ladies Golf Association Annual General Meeting . I attended the said meeting tonight at the Maraenui Golf Club. President Russell Burn has retired after many years as a member of the Association and in later years the Board that runs the finances and Representative fixtures. New President is Dave Lawrence. Our Association is one of five in New Zealand that is anything like financial. NZ Golf have indicated levies will increase next year in line with inflation, but our own Association has voted to keep ours at this years level. Charity applications assist with some of the team travel and accommodation, as well as updating some uniforms. The meeting had its challenges, but to be fair, the challenges were brought due to Constitutional errors, which may appear light at hand, but are necessary, for correct operation of our Association.  . Dave Lawrence concluded the meeting by proposing Life Membership for Russell Burn, which was passed unanimously. Congratulation Russell 


That's it for this week folk. Having not played golf the past two weekends, I'm looking for to a game Saturday, either rough or fresh. 


Good Golfing
