We awoke this morning to blustery freezing cold winds which were not on our "order" list for the Annual F-Troop Golf Day. All F-Troopers know what it means to get these kind of days - and that is a big mess all over the golf course with trees, branches & leaves down every which way.
We managed to ignore all the mess for today and enjoyed the day of golf regardless of battling against the wild winds all morning. The weather was not going to dampen our spirit.
We had seven groups of golfers and played a Team 1 x 2 x 3 which was very sociable. The end scores were very close with the winners enjoying a bottle of wine each donated by Bert & Annie Brink. Our winners today were Georgina Lamb, Sam Knox, Jan Walker & Neville Walker.
The Team Event was followed by a beautiful private Christmas Luncheon in the Magnolia Room - compliments of the Board in appreciation of our work over the year.
Current Members of our F-Troop were presented with a new F-Troop work shirt with the new Club Logo. These shirts were sponsored by Peter Murphy on behalf of the Cancer Council and Bridge Mower & Chainsaw Centre, East Gosford. Our thanks to the Board & our sponsors for our "New Look" image.

Martin Gallagher had made a Tool Box for F-Troop's personal use and presented it to Peter Martin at the luncheon (photo attached).
F-Troopers attending today were: John & Sue Coddington, Mark & Anne Stimpson, Sam Knox, Georgina Lamb, Jan Walker, Neville Walker, Peter Murphy, Rosalie Dyer, Duncan Dyer, Fred Middleton, Martin Gallagher, Anne Burgess, Bert Brink, Annie Brink, Richard Casey, Leonie Casey, Geoff Bridge, Des Wilson, Yvonne Wilson, Gwen White, Bruce White, Noel Fenning, Doug Incoll, Robin Incoll, Garry Trigg, Doreen Trigg, Julie Hazzard, Warren Gray, Di Beechey, George Foster, Peter Martin, Jan Martin.
F-Troopers unable to attend the day were: Mary Bromwich, Arthur Verlander, Kerry Cubis, Frank Whittington, Steve McGuckin & Bev Way.
We have had a big year and have achieved much. My appreciation to all the abovementioned people who have been so generous in donating their time and energy towards the beautification of our Golf Course.
YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
