Stuart Denholm Memorial Stableford
Stu's sister Elizabeth and bother-in-law Douglas travelled from Lithgow last weekend to be at the inaugural memorial event. Liz was overwhelmed by the reception from staff and  members, a sign of true respect for Stu.  Plans for next year are for more family members to be present and a contingent of Lithgows finest golfers to take on the course. Well done to Tom Dunlop to win the event with 40 points, runner up was Simon Kemp with 39. NTP 11th hole Tony Fitzpatrick and the Pro-pin went to James Burkitt.

Course Update...

The new Toro rough mower is enjoying a little dryer conditions and getting around the course in no time at all.  This mower cuts the whole rough in 3 days compared to the previous toro machine which took 5 days.  Enjoy playing out of the rough, it's well cut.
9th Hole GUR
Over the next week or so. keep a look out for the penalty area on the Cemetery drain being back in play.  A little more work is being done and the GUR will be a thing of the past.

Enjoy the warmer summer conditions, for a few days at least, and keep your head down and follow through!!
