It was a rushed morning for me at F-Troop today as I was also participating this afternoon in the District Open Day being held this year at Everglades. My playing partners were Fay Bailey, Wendy Stapleton and Faye Levenspiel and we had a very enjoyable day at Everglades. It was a well run day by the District Ladies Committee and Everglades Ladies Committee. There were many Gosford Ladies attending the day including some of our regular F-Troopers.
We had eleven starters at F-Troop which was great as there was a lot of cleaning up & planting jobs to be done. We had Martin Gallagher, Duncan Dyer, Peter Martin, Geoff Bridge, Des Wilson, Garry Trigg, Richard Casey, Bruce White, Georgina Lamb & Anne Burgess.
Martin, Duncan, Geoff, Des, Garry & Richard worked hard on the tree trimming at the 3rd and 4th Fairways carting away a lot of surplus rubbish.
Georgina Lamb cleaned up the downstairs area of the club & the front car park.
Anne Burgess worked on the Bougainvilleas along "Camellia Way" giving them a good mulching & fertilizing and some deep watering. Anne also fertilized and mulched the Kangaroo Paw garden at the BBQ area.
I worked on the garden above the wedding garden - trimming back the Bougainvillea that had grown out of control, planted out some newly donated plants (Donated by Gavin Godwin - THANKS GAVIN!) to fill in the gaps in the garden that are trodden down by trespassers.
Peter was the "Gofer" helping out the troops with tools, rubbish pick up & removal.
Martin Gallagher also trimmed the Grevilleas on the 6th and the palm fronds at the 14th that were in need of trimming.
Morning tea was a delicious variety of mini slices of cake - Thanks Chef John!
A good morning's work was done by all.
YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
