President's Report & Results HMB 23 Apr

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a single stableford event at Half Moon Bay Golf Club, there were 88 starters consisting of 65 men & 23 ladies. There were 5 new members today, Alistair Inglis & Su Zheng from Cairns and Sue Stephens, Liz Harman & Geoff Schneider all from Half Moon Bay welcome to the Vets. The course was in great condition and the weather was even better, at last methinks the tide has turned our way. Our sponsor today was Cape York Accounting, many thanks to them for their continued support to the Vets and hopefully our members are utilising their services.

The second raffle for the Mirage game was done and the winner of $70 is Ian (Kojak) Schofield and 2^nd place receiving $30 is May Wilkinson, please see Doug next week for your prize money. We now have $200 for the Mirage game which is sufficient for the daily winners, ball run etc, many thanks to all members for supporting the raffles. Those not yet nominated for Mirage please see Bob Billingham at the registration desk as numbers are filling rapidly.

Once again HMBGC donated a slab of beer to be raffled off to those who remained for the presentations and the lucky winner was Rosemary Barker. Thanks must go to Greg Ferry and his team at Yorkies for their support and looking after the Vets when we are programmed to visit.

Next weeks game will be at ATHERTON GOLF CLUB, hope to see you all there.

Robin Pres.
