Projects worked on today were tree maintenance at the 17th and 18th, firewood preparation, loose timber pick up around the course (shanks pony), weeding, trimming and mulching of gardens between the 1st and 10th tees, planting in new plants and tidying the Ladies gardens at the 2nd tee, weeding of gardens behind the practice nets, moving of mulch to the 1st and 10th gardens, hedging at the putting practice green.

We had a busy morning and appreciated our morning tea of fresh sandwiches in the sunshine.

After so many wet weather cancellations it was nice to be able to play today and the course was in reasonable condition considering the rain over the weekend.

The Toukley players fought hard but it is never easy playing a club on their home turf.

Thank you all for providing morning tea.

Another great result team.

My thanks to Helen Potter for these results.

WELL DONE GOSFORD!
