Golf - Tuesday 16th December 2008





























Well no prizes for guessing who is back in town! Sighted at the Gosford Golf Club this afternoon were Paul (squid) and Bev Way. Paul arrived back home yesterday for a two week holiday/work break and I understand that he plans to spend a lot of time playing golf so you will all have a good opportunity to catch up with all his news. Bev seemed a tad happy to have him home.
I had a wonderful late afternoon at the club gardens today welcoming some new white iceberg roses to finish off the putting green garden. It is exciting to see the "big picture" starting to come into play and we can thank people such as Marian Gray (Enone Sammons mother) who has very generously donated both of these roses to us and was present for the planting. (picture above). We have received some very generous donations in the last month which contributes greatly to our ability to beautify the course in a shorter period of time. As I said yesterday - we had 22 volunteers of F-Troopers working at the club on Monday morning. This also contributes greatly to the "big picture" where our course can be in tip top shape & looking beautiful to boot.
It was a beautiful day for golf today - sunshine and blue skies - just as we like it.
The event of the day was a single stableford and we had 51 starters.
