President's Report

 A beautiful morning greeted 87 men & 17 ladies who turned up to a course that was in good condition with fast greens.  Members seem to have forgotten over the break the need for accuracy on the course and scores reflected that! Congratulations to the greens staff.

Thanks to the caterers for looking after us well as usual & to Brothers Leagues Club for sponsoring the day.

Welcome to new members Tony Robinson of Lae, PNG & John Lombardi of Innisfail.  Our membership stands at 164 to date.

Welcome also to visitors Margaret Elliott of Gracetown, Ireland, Doug Massey of Gordonvale & Richard Radziminski, Ken Reisley, George Rywak & Colin Campbell of Half Moon Bay.  We hope you enjoyed the day & will come again.
