Club Presentation Evening

A highly successful Club Presentation Night was held last Monday, 10th December.  Many thanks to those who attended and congratulations to all those who had a successful 2018.

Who will ever forget the Captain, Gary Hunt's 'sound check and generic acceptance speech'? - a potential for the comedy circuit.

calendar icon Saturday 15th December  -  Christmas Ambrose

A reminder that our Christmas Ambrose is this week.  A shotgun start, with the morning session due to commence at 7.00am and the afternoon tee time commencing at 12.30pm.  Please enjoy the atmosphere after your round, with everyone coming in after their round at the same time.

Last year this initiative was well received by members.  Presentations will begin once all cards are entered.  Both morning and afternoon sessions will have special prizes, with our Christmas hams and wine a feature.  Finger food will be provided after play.

This is a fun day and the course is set up for this purpose.  Some novelty situations may occur!

Bunker

Bunkers - A Special Request from the Greens Staff

When raking bunkers, please rake the flat section as normal, BUT please rake the walls with the back of the rake.

You may have noticed a change in the presentation and maintenance of bunkers, with an effort to reduce plugging in the face of the pots.
