Special Olympics Fundraiser, Rotary Fundraiser & Women's Golf FundraiserOver the past two weeks we have had three fundraising events at our Club. A number of our members participated in each, while some participated in all three. It is with pride that we support charities that in turn support those in our community who are less able. The Special Olympic Fundraiser was an enormous success, the highlight being the introduction of some of the athletes who were eager to participate in the after golf activities. Hitting a golf ball off a queen mattress and putting with a hockey stick were just some of the difficulties and highlights of the day. Great job Ray and your team. The Rotary Day was also a magnificent demonstration of the power of this fantastic community support organisation. Some great chipping competitions and Stu Meani driving onto the 18th green were amongst the Golfing highlights. Great job Stephen and your team. For all events, the course was very well presented, well done Issac and team, while Stu and his team did a wonderful job with the golfing and presentation aspects. 2018 Ladies Charity Day - Report - We would like to thank members and visitors for their generous support towards our 2018 Charity Day. We were raising funds for a local Macarthur Charity 'Shining Stars Foundation', who support destitute and desperate individuals across the Macarthur area. They receive no government assistance so need every dollar we can spare. We are pleased to be able to give them over $10000 to help them in their valuable work. The day was wonderful - perfect weather and the course was at its best - well done Ground staff. A highlight of the day was our Champagne hole where two wonderful golfers, our Trainee Pro Adriana and Greg "Super Girl" Matheson showed us how to do a great drive. No hole in one this year but we have great hopes for our next charity day! Thanks to all involved in contributing to the success of the day. Colleen Versluis. |
