The Greens staff were kept very busy today cleaning up after the wild wind of yesterday
We have a lot of large branches down which is no real surprise so clean up was the name of the game today. Considering the mess I saw at 7.00am today they did a good job of clean up.

We had two golf events today - both of which were very popular and well supported by our Members.
This morning we had a Medley Event for Men and Ladies and at 4.30pm we had a Shotgun start for and nine hole Single Stableford for Men and Ladies which included a buffet dinner after golf.
It was fantastic to see so many Members at the club tonight. Our Badge Draw worth $2,900 was not won as the unfortunate winner was not at the club at the time of the draw. The draw will jackpot to next Friday night when it will be worth $2,950. Make sure you are there next week on the off chance that your name will get drawn. I was there tonight and was lucky enough to have my name drawn out for the month end draw worth $50 where there is a draw from the barrel from the past months raffle tickets. That was a great highlight for me considering I did not have a lot to brag about in my golf.
We had a lovely evening enjoying the company of Paul and Angelique Scholberg. Angelique had one of her rare games of golf and emerged as a hidden talent - showing great promise as a future regular golfer when time permits. We hope the Nine and Dine does continue during the warmer months when we can enjoy the benefits of daylight saving and enjoy a good social night as well. Tonight's raffles included assorted meat trays and Christmas Hams that proved very popular.
