President's Report

A beautiful sunny day with a pleasantly cool breeze rewarded those who turned up at Atherton golf club for our weekly game. Congratulations to the greens staff for the presentation of the course.

The weather seems to be settling down at last, although the forecast is for some more rain coming in at the weekend, however that is unlikely to affect the Mareeba Open as it rarely rains at Mareeba according to our (unbiassed?) Treasurer! If anyone is hoping for a last minute inclusion in the Open, forget it, as it is fully booked with a waiting list & the draw has been completed.

Thanks to Debbie & Owen for the welcoming tea, coffee, raisin bread and sandwiches which went down well as usual. Thanks also to the club for sponsoring the event.

Welcome to our new member, Darryl King of Atherton. Our membership stands at 226 for the 2012 year.

Our next game is at Half Moon Bay on 1^st May. The Consistency event that was cancelled on 20^th March has been transferred so you won't miss out. Greg Ferry also informs me that the caterer has changed & there is a new menu to tempt you.

Look forward to seeing you there.
