Golf - Tuesday 2nd December 2014

We had a nice day for golf after last night's storm.  Although it was the dreaded Greenkeeper's Revenge we all had a good day facing up to the challenges set for us hitting off the Men's tees over the 10th, 3rd and 13th.

My playing partners were Yvonne Cumming and Sandra Innes and we had a good fun day with a lot of laughs.  Yvonne was the star finishing off the day with a lovely gobbler par for a 4 pointer at the 18th. Yvonne also scored a great 2 pointer at the 10th after hitting her drive left off the men's 10th tee, hitting the metal course conditions board near the path, rebounded to the first tee where she had to struggle back to the 10th fairway negotiating the trees at the 9th.

The Golf Event of the day was a Single Stableford - Greenkeeper's Revenge where the tees are put right back and the holes placed in precarious positions.

We had 51 starters including one visitor Arja Clark from Kooindah.

DIVISION 1 - 0 TO 22:

WINNER:  Fay Bailey - 34 points on a countback

NO HANDICAPPING TODAY!

F-Troop - Monday 1st December 2014

We had a very busy morning at F-Troop this morning working with a skeleton crew of eight.

On hand we had Duncan Dyer, Geoff Bridge, Don Nicholls, Rob Benson, Warren Gray, Peter Martin,
Di Beechey and Jan Martin.

The Tree Gang of Duncan Dyer, Geoff Bridge, Warren Gray worked along the fenceline of the 2nd.

Rob Benson did a great job of replacing the front door mat at the Pro Shop before helping the Tree Gang at the 2nd.

Peter Martin & Don Nicholls completed three plumbing jobs in the clubhouse and painted some safety strips on the doorways underneath the clubhouse.

Di Beechey cleaned up around the clubhouse and the BBQ area before completing the painting of the outdoor furniture under the clubhouse and tidying up the Spike Bar..

I worked out at the bush toilet area cleaning the toilet block and raked up the paths and gardens there, trimmed the lavender and daisies in the pots at the 4th tee, trimmed the  Lilly Pilly at the 10th Tee, watered the potted plants in the wedding gazebo, renewed the water in the water feature at the 1st Tee.

We appreciated morning tea of scones, jam and cream - Thank You Chef Alice!

I have had a lot of enquiries regarding the flowering trees at the 7th Tee.  They are Norfolk Island Hibiscus Trees and are currently out in full flower.  They can be grown from the seeds - but beware the seeds contain fibres that can irritate the skin.

YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
