President vs Captain Day – Saturday
The Presidential team as winners of last year’s challenge have decreed that “Riding for the Disabled” will be the nominated charity for this year’s event.
The cost of the stableford round is the usual $16.
A Donation Box will be left in the golfshop for members to make cash donations as they pay their comp entry fee. Alternatively you can use EFT to donate to the charity. We only have the facility to accept $25: $16 to the comp fee and $9 to the charity.
Please be generous to this very worthy charity.

Plovers make Phil a target
Phil Gosling was enjoying his game today but came a cropper on the 16th.
As playing partner Stephen Gemmill witnessed,
” After being buzzed by the plovers on the 16th, Phil got his umbrella out for protection, but when he put his umbrella back he didn’t close it properly. While standing on the 17th tee, the wind came up, blew Phil’s umbrella up like a sail and promptly deposited his bag, buggy, and possessions into the dam.
Kind of summed up his back nine.”

Stephen kindly set us some photos,
We all hope Phil was able to get all of his possessions back in a usable form.
Hyams Creek takes another victim.
Playing the fourth today Richard Bremner went close to the edge of Hyams Creek looking for a ball.
You guessed it, in he went, cutting his leg in the process. The wound required first aid by Linda from the Office.
Reports are that Richard is feeling ok. We certainly hope so.
Please be careful around Hyams Creek. Don’t join the increasing number of victims.
