We are certainly into Summer conditions at the moment. Look at last Saturdays scoring Senior, David Hurrell 41 stb, Craig Evans 40, Willie Veitch 38, Junior Norm Evans 45, Fraancis De Schweitzer 42, Warren Ridge, M B Lilo, and Trevor De laharpe all on 41. For the rest of us scoring between 37 and 40, good work, you are getting a new handicap.
Saturday 1st February, Card draw 11.30am. Please complete first round of summer Cup Matches either this weekend or on Waitangi Day, Round 2 starts next Saturday.

Contributions:
Ladies; Glenys Nicol Ladies Captain,
The ladies have been refurbishing their locker room. Nice and bright and light. Gone is the “hospital green”, in with the” inspirational cream” It is looking great even if it is the wrong colour. Thanks to everyone for their help. Still a work in progress to replace notice boards etc. All welcome to check it out.
At our ladies AGM we have decided this year to trial, combine with the men and have our club champ finals day on the 23rd May. Reason being to return to a “big club day.” So qualifying rounds, quarter and semi finals are scheduled to be completed before that date. Please refer to your program. The men reported better weather and course conditions last year, so hopefully that will continue.
We have also made an executive decision to not proceed with our tournament on 19th March. New World were approached for sponsorship again this year and their response was they would sooner sponsor the club as a whole. Ie Flags. We haven’t persued other sponsors this year. Maybe next year for that.
NZMCA tournament 14th March. Should be a good fundraiser for the club. They, camp, play golf, and the club provide a meal (BBQ) before moving on to Pahiatua on Saturday. Could we have some ladies help with cards on that day please.
Happy, happy golfing. The course is amazing. Glenys
Seniors Gus Terry,
Central and Southern Hawkes Bay Seniors Golf.
A reminder to everyone that Opening Day will be at
Waipukurau on Tuesday February 4th. As usual the club rooms will be open
for morning tea from about 9.45am and tee off will follow at 10.30.
Dannevirke players meet at the Hub car park at 9am.
Cheers
Gus.

Hire of the Club Lounge
We have 2 weddings booked for February. On Friday 21 February we have a wedding reception for Hamish Prenter and on Saturday 29 February Adam Webster is getting married at the Golf Club. I’ll send out a reminder closer to the time but it does mean the upstairs lounge is not available for a couple of days. These are the only 2 confirmed bookings I have for 2020.
Waitangi Day
On Thursday 6 February there will be a Sister’s Club tournament, tee off 11.00 am, $10.00, Sister’s Club members to bring a prize please.
This year the Sister’s Club tournament is to be hosted by the Rarangi Club in Blenhiem on 30 and 31 May and we are considering playing a couple of other courses in the Malborough area either prior to or following the tournament. So we are trying to raise extra money to keep costs to a minimum thus encouraging as many as possible to make the trip.
Marae tournament
Saturday 22 February is the annual marae tournamet. 11.00 am start $30 entry with great prizes and great food all day. Names on the board please or contact Stephen.
Thanks

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.
