Monday 11th December - Cancer Council

We're taking on Cancer Council's The Longest Day......the ultimate golf challenge to complete four rounds of golf in one day! (Or less as required.)
We'll be testing our skill, strength, and stamina to raise funds for Cancer Council.
Because Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, with two in three Australians diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70 and we want to help change this.
Simon Kemp has a team going; the Bowral Bombers, so click here to join the Bombers... https://www.longestday.org.au/fundraisers/bowralbombers.  
Or register your own team... here...https://www.cancer.org.au/the-longest-day

Let's see if we can better our last amount raised which was over $30,000.

Others to achieve the feat were Les Brooker and Clark Gibbons ( 2 better), Tony Hobson (1 better) and Tony Rourke (equal). John Mellen achieved the feat 9 times during the 6 months, with Clark (5 times, Harry and Les (4 times) and Tony and Tony once each - a marvellous achievement.
