                                 Championships Round 2, Please confirm matches with starter
                                  Clubhouse. As we are a bar, we can now open up again. I beleive at this stage the House Committee are selling stubbies and Quarts only, no draught beers (TBC) 
                                                    There will be rules so please abide by them
 
Mikes request; Competition cash is becoming a real problem, with the cash machines in town dishing out $50 notes. Please we just don't have change for everyone, so if you can save a $10 note during the week for Saturday, it will make life so much easier for the Match Committee. Thanks
 
Golf HB Association; As mentioned previously, the Zoom meeting agreed that both Coronation and Greenwood Cups would be played this year subject to gathering size being lifted. 
If we are going ahead, the Soutnern Zone match has been penciled in for Saturday / Sunday August 1st and 2nd (at Dannevirke) This will replace our 27hole Tournament, as the Rosebowl is not happening this year, as both Pongaroa and Cape Turnagain have missed their dates. The finals will be held November 14-15, the same weekend as the Greenwood final weekend. 
 
Great to see golf up a going again. Under foot conditions are still excellent, so lets keep the Championships matches flowing, so we finish on time on June 20th. Good luck with your matches.

The front panel of 15cm has a club house photo and club details, with a 4cm advertisement at the bottom. The centre panel is a full 15cm advertisement, and panel three remains with the course layout and local rules. Anyone willing to discuss advertising or sponsorship options, please email our Secretary Bailey at dannevirkegolf@xtra.co.nz, in the first instance. A warm welcome to new members who have joined our Club and been added to What's On over the past few weeks. If you are receiving this email, and no longer wish to be on the email list, please flick me a return email and I will delete your details. What's On is also posted on our Facebook page by mid morning every Friday. Here's hoping we get a good day Saturday so we can get plenty of matches played. Good Golfing👍 Bryan Burt Club Scribe
