President Report for HMBGC 03 Mar 20

PRESIDENT REPORT – HALF MOON BAY GOLF CLUB 03 Mar 20

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a 2 person Ambrose at HMBGC something a little different from the norm, there was a great field of 115 players today consisting of 89 men & 26 ladies. There were 8 new members, David Manley, John English, Marion & Paul Wright all from HMBGC, Terry Craven from Gordonvale GC, Lyn Small, Erina Williams & Nikki Bruce from Cairns GC, welcome everyone to the Vets.

The course was actually superb and the weather fantastic, many thanks to Greg Ferry and his team for providing a great venue in tip top condition as well as donating a slab of beer for our presentations. The lucky winner was Celia Fox who told me she did not drink beer but I did notice that she had made a lot of new friends by the time she got to the car park.

Our sponsor today was the REEF CASINO, who have come on board yet again in 2020 as one of our main sponsors, your sponsorship is much appreciated by all of our members.

As mentioned at presentations Bob Billingham will be accepting nominations and fees ($35 per head) shortly for those intending to play at the Mirage game on Friday 29 May, we will be a couple of committee members down for this game so Bob will make it easier all round by having player numbers in readiness prior to the game. Also Liz Edmonds will commence taking orders for the FNQVGA shirts when she has made contact with the supplier, please watch this space for more news.

The next Vets game will be a single stableford event at Atherton GC in two weeks, for the newcomers, all Vets games are registration from 6.30 – 8.00 with first tee off at 0700 – 0830 ish.

Next Tableland Summer of Golf game is at Mareeba GC next Tuesday at 0830.

Robin
