President's Report

 75 men & 20 ladies turned up on a beautiful, if blustery morning, to a course that was quite heavy going off the fairways due to a mower breakdown.  Many may have expected the greens to hold as they had been doing during the wet weather, but instead found the ball bounding through & the putts were a lot faster than expected too.  Scores were not high!

Thanks to Phil for looking after us well as usual & running a drinks cart around & Tom Bryce for preparing the board for us.

Welcome to new members Paul Patten of Gordonvale & Alistair Inglis of Paradise Palms.  Our membership stands at 187 to date.  Welcome also to visitor Keith Dudgeon of Ashgrove.  We hope you enjoyed the day & will come again.

A few members availed themselves of Daniel Gawley's warmup/pro tips session on the practice ground that was notified on the blog at short notice.  We hope to offer this service again next game at Gordonvale, but will let you know nearer the time.

Our game next week is at Half Moon Bay, so fingers crossed for some more decent drying weather.
