Marae Golf Tournament

 

Thanks to all those that supported the tournament, we had a field of 81 which is a 30% increase on the past 6 or 7 years. Robert McVeigh a new member at Takapau won the Dave Barber Memorial Cup with 48 stableford points, it wasn’t the best score Hoera Stephenson a Y13 pupil at Hastings Boy High, a non golfer shot 79 off the stick! Bragging rights for the teams go to Makirikiri Marae. Once again thanks for the continued support of the Dannevirke Golf Club and members.

 

Sisters Club

 

The draft programme is out for this year’s tournament and it’s a similar format to previous years. I’ve got 4 couples and 12 individuals definitely going to Blenheim on 4 June. The majority are travelling by bus with the others making their own way south. I’ve booked several rooms at the Grove Park Motor Lodge, where we’ve stayed during tha last couple of visits.If you’re interested in coming please contact me.

 

Regards Stephen.


Looking forward to Round 1 Pennants on Sunday. Please remember if Covid Alert Level 2 is extended, play will still continue, but please abide by clubhouse rules at the respective hosting clubs.


Good Golfing everybody.

Unfortunately, no one was able to ‘sink a hole in one’ and win the money. A big thank you to Mr Amrit Pasad and all the staff and students who helped to make this event a success. We would also like to thank the Dannevirke Golf Course, our generous sponsors and our community for entering the tournament and participating in the fundraising activities held on the day. All profits of this event will go towards our students’ sports travel." Special General Meeting; Thank you to the 55 members who turned out Monday night for the purpose of " Setting the annual member subscription fees for the 2026 / 2027 year. " The conclusion being the annual subscriptions for 2026 / 2027 is $665 for full playing members. The Management Committee acknowledges their error in not advertising this as an Agenda item at the AGM in December. Matter sorted, repeat of error to be avoided, move on. We are in the thick of Match Play golf with GHB Pennants and now Club Champs, and in April, the Coronation Cup. I hope all participants enjoy the experience. Good Golfing👍 Bryan Burt Club Scribe
