EASTER DINNER DANCE:
Easter is a difficult time to commit to a night out at the Golf Club because it is traditionally a family/holiday time - however those that did come had a wonderful night.
We were entertained by an exceptional band "Brassick" that have played at the club on several occasions previously and were very popular. We all had our dancing shoes on and were up on the dance floor having a great time. In addition to the golfing patrons we also had some visitors from Berowra who were in Gosford for the night and also some local people who had heard that the band was playing at our club.
It was mentioned to me tonight that the night was good value for the meal and entertainment and they would have been happy to have paid $55 for just the evening - so those of us that also got 18 holes of golf as well got a bargain!
