President's Message 20th September 2011


Veteran Golfers

Today's event held at Mareeba Golf Club was attended by 139 players. Mareeba Golf Club presented a very well prepared course for our players, also great clubhouse hospitality,  thank you Mareeba Golf Club. Thank you to the volunteers who do a lot of work preparing the course for us.

TGT Hardware was the Sponsor,  there is an array of prizes including vouchers, caps, stubby holders, and mini coolers, thank you for your support during 2011.

Welcome to visitors; Roysei Kobayshi from Japan, Paul Gallagher and Kevin Collins from Mareeba, Darryl Horn form Coomealla NSW, Ted Spring from Strathallen Vic, Peter Marriot from Taroom, Cheryl Scown from Pioneer Valley, Wazza Berry, Larry Crawt, Neil Cawsey, Kevin Moore and Robyn Harper from Half Moon Bay Golf Club.

Welcome to two new members Peter Mullins from Mareeba Ken Tait from Atherton, that takes our total to 319.

The Committee have decided to support the "Cancer Council, Call to Arms" at our fixture at Cairns Golf Club on 18th October 2011. All players will be charged $10 to play on that day, $3 per player will be given to the Cancer Council. To also show your support you could wear something yellow on that day.

Something different we are trying this year is the Annual Presentation will be held when the players complete their round on the AGM Day 22nd November. The AGM is held at 8:00am and there is a shotgun start at 8:30am so we should have a large group in attendance straight after the finish of play, and prior to the days presentation. We would appreciate as many players as possible are in attendance, particularly trophy winners.

The next games are Tuesday 27th September at Gordonvale Golf Club, Single Stableford,  then Tuesday 4th October at Half Moon Bay Golf Club, Single Stableford.

Hope to see you at these games

Regards
Ross Bird
