Golf - Tuesday 24th August 2010 - President Vs Captain Day
























































































































We had a lovely day for the President Vs Captains Day which is one of our well supported fun days that we look forward to each year.
My playing partner was Mary Ellis & we were on the President's side (blue) & our opponents on the Captain's side were Julie Hazzard & Chris Dekker (Red). We had a lovely day with some good highlights however Julie & Chris won the day for the Captain's side & had a good enough score to win a ball.
The Event of the day was the Annual President Vs Captain "Pinehurst" and we had 86 starters with 2 visitors from Terrigal.

Today was the first day of operations for the new Front Desk of the Pro Shop & everything ran smoothly. The change over was made right on target date so Project Manager Des Wilson is very happy with the renovations schedule. The new merchandise will now be displayed on the right hand side of the shop as you walk in where there is now a lot more room after the removal of the old desk. The Member's Lounge & washroom area is coming together & should be operational in the next few weeks.
