Evening all,

Ashley Pedersen, It is with sadness I report the sudden death on the 15th of Ashley Pedersen. Ashley was one of the group that joined Nick, Harpo, Bob, and the many others who play several times per week, following his retirement from Dannevirke New World. Our thoughts go out to his family and fellow golfers.


Saturday 23rd February: Marae Tournament 11am multi tee start. Stephen Paewai advises they are playing rain hail or shine, as the food has been bought and all had other plans are in place. You can still rock up on the day, and be put into the draw. This tournament has been going since Hepa Tatere was President, with our elder statesmen Bung and Billy and associates attending many neighboring Marae Tournaments to drum up support for their local fundraiser. The three local Marae take turns in hosting, and being the benefactor of the fund raising effort for that year.


Pennants 2019 Pennants kick of on Sunday 3rd March, with Dannevirke having teams in the following grades, Championship 1 and 3, Handicap 1,3,and 4. Attached are the draws for each grade, including dates, byes, and host Clubs. We have a busy first round with Handicap 1, 3 and 4 all playing at Dannevirke. Handicap 1 has 6 teams, whereas 3 and 4 only have 4 teams, as there is a bye in both these grades.

However it is still 84 players to get moving, and then be fed and watered after their rounds.


Good Golfing to you all.

Evening all,
Annual General Meeting, A good muster of members attended last Mondays AGM, where the business section flew through, with finances in good heart, and obviously members are more than happy with the course, as no one raised any negative issues regarding the Club or the Course. Recognition of service in the form of Life Memberships were bestowed on Helen Martin, Max Charmley and Ian McKenzie. Speaking to these members were Gail Borlase, John Mackay and Ken Barnett. All three new Life Members have been members of the Club since the 70s or 80s, and since joining have spent countless years on Committees, I congratulate Helen, Max and Ian on an outstanding effort A list of the 2020 committee is attached for your interest. (It may be headed 2019, but it is in fact the 2020 list)
The Match committee are working on the 2020 programme. We have some dates through from GHB but not all, and April is a difficult month to programme around as this year both Easter and Anzac weekends fall in that month. With Anzac Day on a Saturday, Monday becomes an observed day, so we have a 4 day and a 3 day weekend within two weeks of each other
Saturday 14th December: Christmas Cheer 12 noon Shot Gun Start, $20 Entry fee. The entry sheet has plenty of names on it, looks like a good field. Marcus & Glen are again running their Hagggle, food and drinks hole, so come along one and all and enjoy the day
2020:
Saturday January 11th Summer Cup Qualifying (top 32)
Christmas Message. Wishing all members a safe and happy Christmas and New Year. If you are travelling, please do so safely. Enjoy your time with family and friends. If time allows, hit the fairways
Good Golfing,
Merry Christmas,
