F-Troop - Monday 28th May 2018



The Shed Project began with the removal of several thousand screws


How many men does it take to change a light bulb?



All hands on deck dismantling the shed frame


The boys all combining well as a very efficient team



Gary Sammons arriving after the job was done for a cameo appearance!


Hi Ho! Hi Ho! 


What Shed?

F-Troop work was mainly an off site job today leaving a skeleton crew of Ron Gowing and Di Beechey to look after the clubhouse area.

We had a good number of volunteers who put in a special effort to assist us with "The Shed" project.

On hand we had Duncan Dyer, Kevin O'Brien, Peter Martin, Don Nicholls, Andy Henebury, Terry Coyle, Steve Hogg, John Hollebon, Mark Stimpson, Clyde Cruickshanks, Bert Brink, Jan Martin (morning tea maker & photographer) along with our supervisor Warren who is our in house shed expert.

The boys did a very efficient job getting the shed down in a very short amount of time. Congratulations to you all.

YES!  WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

F-Troop - Monday 21st May 2018


Tree maintenance 


Garden near the 4th Tee
plants salvaged from the 17th dog leg garden
that was recently cleared.


We had a beautiful day to do our F-Troop projects today however the cold & flu season has started and we had three down and out, some still away on holidays & a huge tree maintenance project that occupied our tree gang for the whole day.

On hand we had Duncan Dyer, Rob Benson, Steve Hogg, Don Nicholls, Sam Knox, Ron Gowing, Peter Martin, John Hollebon and Jan Martin.

The tree maintenance program was a full days working with a professional tree lopper and a mulching machine.  Other projects were delivery of firewood, repair to the 18th boundary fence, hedge maintenance, cleaning of the area around the clubhouse including the wedding garden and 1st and 10th tees, loose timber and rubbish pick up around the course, cleaning of the bush toilets, watering the pots and tidy up of the 6th tranquility garden, watering the bike garden and ladies 9th tee garden, breaking up the clivea bulbs so the plants can be replanted into other gardens after being rescued from the dump. 

Morning tea was staggered as the workers arrived and left at various times - thus no photo today. We appreciated a nice morning tea of savoury breads, cakes and iced buns. 

YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

F-Troop Morning Tea - Duncan Dyer, Sam Knox, Kevin O'Brien,
Graham Chee, Rhonda Robertson, Di Beechey, Peter Martin, Rob Benson
(Jan Martin & John Hollebon)

We had a rather small crew this morning for various reasons - holidays, bad weather etc.

On hand were Duncan Dyer, Sam Knox, Kevin O'Brien, Rob Benson, John Hollebon, Peter Martin,
Di Beechey & Jan Martin. 

As the Ladies have a big Open Day on tomorrow (144 starters including 70 odd visitors) we had a lot of cleaning up to do after the wild weather over the last few days.

Projects worked on today were rubbish and loose timber pick up, cleaning up the tees and paths including around the clubhouse, cleaning the bush toilets, cutting up of firewood, maintenance to the hedges, weeding gardens and general clean up, delivery of firewood orders.

We made short work of the morning tea goodies after a hard mornings work and it was most appreciated.

YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Highlights of the Myall Classic Week at Hawks Nest

24 Gosford Members represented Gosford Golf Club at the Myall Classic at Hawks Nest this week and did us proud as you can see by all the "winners" photos.

We all had a great week in wonderful weather (so far). Tomorrow's Ambrose could be a worry with gale force winds predicted - but no rain. The course was in beautiful condition and the competition was well run by the Committee.

Lyn Bates was beaten on a countback  for runner up on the overall 52 hole competition and was our best overall performer.  Our biggest scorer was Arthur Collien with a fine score of 42. Peter Martin had his first ever Hole-in-One on the Sunday mixed event before the Classic started but was the biggest highlight of the week.
