President's Report

A good field of 28 ladies & 110 men turned up on an overcast day that turned out well to play a course that was in good condition. The greens were a bit slow & an ongoing improvement regime had surrounds with bare patches, but these were GUR, so posed no particular problems. The day was sponsored by the Association.

Welcome to visitors, Leigh Barry from Greenbeach, Tas., Charlie Langham from Wauchope, NSW, Bill Stiller from Hervey Bay & Peter McGregor from Auckland, NZ.

Welcome also to new members Roger Glover, Phil Pearce from Innisfail, Robert Kum from Boxhill, Vic., & Walter & Marlene Schlechtriem from Sawtell, NSW. Our membership is now 319 for the year.

Thanks to Tom Bryce for preparing the board for us as usual & for Lionel & Emily for looking after us at the bar & making up the sandwiches.

One of our committee members, George Kyriazis, has resigned as he is currently in Bamaga enjoying the fishing whilst his wife is working in the hospital there & has had her contract extended for another few months. (Remember your former mates on the committee when you get back George – we all like lobster!)

We are now 2 members down & will have a further 3 heading off at various times over a few weeks from September, so we really need some additional members to take us up to our AGM in December, or the smooth running of our competitions may be severely affected.

If you feel you can give a bit of time to serve on the committee, please contact any existing committee member.

Also,our Treasurer, Col McDowall, has indicated he would like to step down at the AGM after 9 years in various roles on the committee, so if there are any members who feel they could handle this job, please let us know, as the position is an important one which should have a decent familiarisation/handover period.

Our next game is at Atherton golf club on 24^th July.

Look forward to seeing you there.
