We are now out of the play offs and I would like to thank all the lads for playing with fantastic enthusiasm and determination. 
It has been a pleasure to captain the team and I believe we have been great ambassadors for Super Seniors golf and our Club.

The tree gang of Duncan Dyer and Kevin O'Brien worked on undercutting the trees around the course and removed two broken branches at the back of the first fairway.

Don Nicholls repaired the path outside the Pro Shop.

Rob Benson did rubbish pick up around the course.

Sam Knox worked on preparing our firewood supplies.

Peter Martin mowed the grass at the front street and cleaned up at the back of the clubhouse.

Di Beechey and Anne Burgess cleaned up the BBQ Garden and worked in the wedding garden area.

I worked at the 14th bush toilets, trimmed the hedge at the 14th roundabout garden, watered the pots at the 6th tranquility garden, the elk horns on the 5th, the bike garden, the garden at the ladies 9th tee, the new trees at the 17th dogleg , sprayed the new hedge at the 4th and had another nibble at weeding the 17th dogleg garden. 

We enjoyed our morning tea of hot cross buns, cakes and slices - Thank you Barto!

YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
