Saturday 23rd June 11.30am Card Draw


Saturday 30th June Presidents cup 1st Round Matchplay. Draw and tee times to be advised next week


Management Committee Meeting; Wednesday 27th June


Last Sunday Dave Lawrence (GHB Junior selector) brought a small group of Juniors down to play against members of GHB Eagles Association. Amazing that some of Daves players were at the Fiji Open, and others at the Youth Age grade golf in the States. I had the pleasure of being drawn with 15 year old Zeb Kettle from Napier Golf Club, who finished with a par round, which was a great effort in the heavy conditions we are encountering presently. Thanks to Kieran for mowing the greens for us on Sunday morning


On Saturday we held the discussion regarding Saturday Ladies joining the Sattrup & Brannigan 4bbb competition. I received an email from Bob McKee outlining how to play this competition with ladies included with rules for such in the Handicap manual. For members wishing to read these rules, they are printed and displayed in the handicap frame beside the office window. After allowing those who wished to speak for or against, members voted in favour of allowing the Ladies to play. Thankyou to those members who expressed their opinion. Hence forth the matter is closed. . .


Maybe it will be fine overhead on Saturday to get out there and enjoy a round. Please be mindful the Course is really wet currently, so keep carts and trundlers away from soft spots especially in front of 8 and 16. Please do not take trundlers between bunkers and the greens, go around the back of the bunker.


I currently have ten members who have informed me that they don't wish to be included in the Championship draws, any others, please send me an email before Round 1 on 28th July


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,
