President's Report

Although nothing much was showing up on the weather chart, many members must have woken up, heard the rain & decided to stay in bed, as only 45 men & 10 ladies turned up at Millaa Millaa for our final Patron's Trophy event, so there was only one division awarded for each. However, although we got wet, it was at least not as cold & windy as the last time we played there.

The course was in good condition with the rain slowing the greens considerably & taking a bit of run off the fairways although the ball sat up well on them. Congratulations to the volunteers who maintain the course.

Thanks to Warren Afflick for putting out the NTPs for us & to the ladies for making up plenty of tasty sandwiches for us. We needed them & hot tea & coffee at the break & after.

The sponsors for the day were Masters Home Improvements for the men & Cazalys for the ladies.

Welcome to visitor John Stimpson of Wondai.

This game was the last of our various trophy competitions. The remainder of the games for the year will be single stablefords, apart from the Xmas breakup game on 3 Dec, which is a 2 ball Ambrose.

Next game is at Atherton on 29 Oct. Fingers crossed for a fine day.
