All,

Our next game is a single stableford at Babinda & is the last round of the Patron's Trophy.

See you there.

President Report & results for Cairns GC 10 sep 19

PRESIDENT REPORT – CAIRNS GOLF CLUB 10 Sep 19

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a single stableford at CAIRNS Golf Club with once again a very good turnout as there were 102 starters consisting of 76 men & 26 ladies. There was one visitor, Graham Ballantine from Copper Club and one new member Peter Hunt from HMBGC. The course was in excellent condition with plenty of run on the fairways and golfers had to putt smart to score well and judging by the scores below there were plenty of canny golfers out there today.

Many thanks to all the staff at Cairns GC, especially Chloe (bar & food) and Anton (pro shop) for getting us going early up this morning as it was still a bit nippy.

Our sponsor today was STRATFORD PAINTING CONTRACTOR who have been a sponsor throughout 2019 and for those needing any sort of paint job SPC come highly recommended and at a very competetive price. Many thanks to Gordon Perry for your support to the Vets.

Andrina has commenced selling tickets for a monster raffle (flyer attached) which will help reduce costs at our Xmas function in December at Cairns GC. Prizes will be made available to the lucky winners and drawn at Half Moon Bay GC on 24 Sep, many thanks to those members for donating gifts to make this raffle very special.

Special hole in one presentations today were for Graham Real, 8^th Cairns on 04 Dec 18 and Bill Matthews, 4^th HMB on 23 Jul 19, congratulations guys well done.

Next weeks game will be at BABINDA Golf Club, hope to see you all there.

President report & results for Millaa Millaa

PRESIDENT REPORT – MILLAA MILLAA GOLF CLUB 03 Sep19

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a single stableford at the wonderful Millaa Millaa Golf Club, there were 55 starters consisting of 48 men & 7 ladies. There were two visitors, Graham Murray and Greg Taylor from Millaa Millaa.

Today saw some southerners finishing up with the FNQVGA for 2019 and returning home to NSW after enjoying our fantastic weather, Rex & Joy White and Tony Lattimore, safe journeys home and we will catch up with you guys next year.

Many thanks to all the staff at Millaa Millaa GC for having the course in good condition albeit the greens were DEADLY and 3 putts were the norm to the unsuspecting golfers. Most conversations in the clubhouse provided some very descriptive verbs ( I think they were verbs) regarding the greens.

Our sponsor today was CAZALY`s AFL, a great sponsor to the Vets and even better club to visit for those special occasions, appreciated by all members.

No ball run today as all players who remained for the presentations received a ball for supporting the club and there was only one division in mens today due to the low attendance.

Next weeks game will be at CAIRNS Golf Club, hope to see you all there.
