President's
Report
A
beautiful
clear & relatively cool
day greeted
the 82 men & 18 ladies who turned up for
our shotgun start in the final comp
for 2013, a 2 Ball Ambrose.
94 stayed
for our breakup lunch which was catered for by the club. The
course was
in good condition with
greens not
as fast as they have been, which may have been a relief to some.
Congratulations to the greens
staff.
Thanks
to the
caterers & bar staff who looked after us very well. The meal was
on the tables promptly & the prawns plentiful. Thanks to Dave
Pascoe who kindly volunteered to drive around with cold water during
the game to keep us rehydrated. Thanks
also to eagle eyed non playing committee members on the verandah who
kindly & loudly pointed out my approach to the 18th
had gone O/B!
Welcome
to visitors for the day who were also some of our sponsors, Melody
Lucas & her guests Serge & Joan Battistin, Cate Dunbar &
Shae Isselbacher of Savannah Lifestyle Resorts, Carly Hatswell of
Easylift & Scott Payne of Complete Fitness Solutions & Katrin
Nash of Drummond Golf. Thanks to Melody for presenting the Savannah
Cup winners & to Carly for presenting the day's prizes.
Welcome
to new member Bill Peterson of Cairns.
The
winners of the progressive raffle cleaned up most of the items, but
I'm holding a couple for Gary Long & one for Dave Lawler.
We had some programs for 2014 available at registration. More will be available at our first game next year & a copy will be posted to this blog when we finalise sponsorships, probably early in January. I will be posting irregularly to the blog over the next few weeks if we have anything we think may be of interest to members, so please check it every week or so (if you remember during the festive season).
With
best wishes for a Happy Christmas & a healthy & prosperous
New Year from all the committee.
