News from Gail ,
Last week the ladies catered for 49 members of the New Zealand Motor Caravan Association, they were on their annual “golf safari”, which started in Palmerston North, then on to Feilding, Dannevirke, Waipukurau, Hastings, Napier and Maraenui. Approximately 30 vans took up space in our carpark and camp sites. A great fundraiser for the ladies, with green fees, camp sites, cart hireage and bar takings also adding to quite a profitable evening for our club. We received many favourable comments on our course and the dinner which the ladies provided.
Have a good weekend everyone, See you at the High School Tournament on Saturday and good luck at Pennants on Sunday. Travel safely

" Kia ora e te whānau, our golf tournament last weekend was awesome, with 105 golfers turning up to support our school and try their luck at winning $20 000! 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
