The Longest Day - Monday 16th December 2019


Longest Day Charity Day


As many of you are aware, 15 of my mates and I took on the Cancer Council's Longest Day Challenge which was to complete 72 holes in one day. After 12 long hours straight, we managed to complete the challenge and knock over 72 holes in one day!! We probably underestimated how hard 72 holes would be, and trust me when I say this we are feeling it today!
We can't thank you all enough for your generous donations towards Cancer Research. Our original goal was to reach $3000 which I personally thought we would struggle to reach.  After 161 donations we managed to smash our goal and reach a staggering total of $11,190. This wouldn't have been possible without everyone's amazing support so we all thank you dearly. 
As promised, I managed to obtain some golf vouchers as prizes for everyone who donated. The prizes have been drawn and our winners are listed below:
  • Pennant Hills Golf Club x4 rounds of 18 holes & x2 18 hole golf carts - CHRIS MYERS
  • Cypress Lakes Golf Club x4 rounds of 18 holes & x2 18 hole golf carts - SUSAN 
  • Kooindah Waters Golf Club x4 rounds of 18 holes & x2 18 hole golf carts - Terry Jasmin
Huge thanks go out to Andrew Potter from Pennant Hills, Scott Cubis from Cypress Lakes & Dave Stretton from Kooindah Waters for their generous donations. 
All in all, we are all so proud of what we have managed to achieve and thank you everyone for making this charitable event such a success.
