Masters Pennants Results today

Gosford played its first match of Masters pennant at Charlestown Golf Club Today. The course was wet and carts were off so our athletes had to walk the course. Charlestown had a very strong team and were difficult match at their home course and we went down 6.5/1.5. A good win to Paul Jefferson and a half to former Club Champion Robbie Whyte who is still looking for his parking spot.

Next week we have a rematch at home and I believe our boys will be very competitive.

The course was open and we had blue sky and sunshine to enjoy our Open Day. We were allowed to take carts out on the course today provided we followed the white line to avoid causing damage to a very wet course.  It was a fun day even though it was hard to get a good score. 

My playing partners were Carolyn Buttsworth, Rhonda Robinson and Kay Baillie and we did have some good highlights - my best was a gobbler putt in on the 2nd. We won a ball each for our best effort.

Clean up of the garden and gutter behind the clubhouse



Clean up of the drain at the back of the clubhouse



Garden at the front gates tidied



The recent wet weather caused us some problems today with no heavy vehicles or carts allowed on the course. However we can always find jobs off the course ie. behind the clubhouse or front of clubhouse gardens.

We had a good number of volunteers turn up today which was helpful for our projects given the wet weather problems we have had.

On hand we had Sam Knox, Duncan Dyer, Kevin O’Brien, Rob Benson, Don Nicholls, Peter Martin, Lyn Bates, Leeanne Binns, Jan Martin.

Projects worked on today was emptying the very full garden bins at the back of the practice nets, Loose Timber pick up on 9 holes by F-Trooper Rob Benson - Shanks Pony, cleanup of the drain at the back of the clubhouse, clean up of  gutter and garden rubbish from the back of the clubhouse, weeding and clean up of garden at the back of the clubhouse, tidy up of garden at the front entrance of the club, delivery of firewood, planting in of Mondo grass at the Ladies 2nd tee garden, installing the garden edge border fence at the front steps of the clubhouse.

Morning Tea of fresh sandwiches was very much appreciated after a hard mornings work.

YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
