Saturday 27th April. Championship and Plate Semi Finals. Most groups are up todate, with three games being played today Anzac day. BTruesdale, beating G Vigers, V hales beating S Poole, and in the plate competition JB Holm beat P Greatbatch. Remember Finals weekend is set for may 11th, so please keep in contact with your opponents and get these games played.
Sunday 28th April. Round 4 GHB Pennants. Note, as daylight saving has finished, the start time is now 11am. Hopefully tomorrow we will get Tee times from Napier Golf Club, as they are hosting three grades on Sunday Champ 1 and 3 and handicap 3

Champ 3 Dvke v Onga Onga @ HB
Handicap1 Dvke v Maraenui @ Wairoa
Handicap 3 Dvke v Maraenui @ Napier
Handicap 4 Dvke v Hastings @ Maraenui
Handicap 5 Dvke v Karamu @ Onga Onga
Saturday 4th May. Card draw 11.30am
Sunday 5th May Cape Turnagain 27 Hole Strokeplay Tournament (Round 2 Ruahine Rosebowl) 8.30 tee off
Today we had a good field tee off just after noon, competing for the Waitahora Cup plus men v ladies. Waitahora Cup was taken out by Mike Matthews, and the men won the challenge with the ladies. Four ladies competed, and scored very well, but the shear numbers assisted the men.
Management Committee, from the last Meeting I can inform the Club that we have received $20,000 from Pub Charity for the replacement of our Roughs mower. Brian & Kieran have trialled a couple of units, so we should see the new mower out there shortly. The ladies had completed two rounds of pennants with a 4.5 to 3.5 win over Hastings and a 6 to 2 win over Combined.
Maria Adams: Maria has made it known to members of the Committee that she wishes to retire from her current position. She has an ankle injury that requires attention, plus her grand daughters are getting jobs now and are unable to assist her on large day. Currently Maria is there 4 days a week Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, between 11am and finishes up between 2 and 3 pm. Maria is great with our campers, as she speaks more than one language, so is great welcoming person for our international guests. If we have anyone out there who would be interested in taking on this role, or asking questions regarding the role, please contact either Stephen Paewai or Tony Peeti.
Best of luck to those playing Championship and plate rounds on Saturday, and to all playing Pennants on Sunday.
Good Golfing

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,
