Super Scoring Saturday...

20/9/2021

 
COVID-19 Update

As we are getting closer to playing back in 3's and 4's, we are working with MiClub to finalise how fully vaccinated and non fully vaccinated can be efficiently managed.  We will keep you all posted through email as to when we will be back to playing "as near to normal". Thank you for your patience and understanding, it has been a long stay at home period, but we have been able to play golf.  We are better off than others.

Diary Updates

The Oxley Plate has been moved to the 19th of December due to the restrictions relating to playing in 4's.
This is an annual event with Moss vale GC - a mixed 4BBB trophy.  I'll keep you posted on when the sign up sheet is available.  I hope to get a strong field to play at Moss Vale and win the plate.

This year we have a Presentation Night to celebrate the 2021 championship and trophy winners - I will finalise the date for you soon and let you know. It will be great to get back to having the Club House open once more...

A big thank you... landscaping donations

A few months ago I put the call out to members to send in those unwanted or surplus landscape supplies.  This material would have probably gone to the tip but is now being reused to improve the course.  So far we have had gates, fence posts, sandstone, pavers, concrete rubble and bricks to name the main types of materials.
The latest donation is a significant load of treated hardwood fence posts which will be used on the 9th hole to secure the area around the Telstra tower and cemetery.

Thank you and keep it coming. (See photo below)

Course Update...

Following the greens, fairways, tee box renovations of a couple of weeks ago you will have seen the improvements to the condition of the fairways and how easy it is to get a tee into the tee boxes.  The greens have had their first cut, it's all coming together nicely.  Nature also gives us a hand with the growing season starting to get underway. The re turfed areas on the 8th and 9th holes have been cut and will soon be topped dressed. Just reminder the Temporary Local Rule relating to GUR still applies for these two holes.
Also the final touches to the new path from the 8th to the 9th were made last Thursday morning.  Look out for the new garbage bins, while not the most riveting topic to mention they do provide a valuable function.  (see below photos below - click on them to enlarge for more detail)

The Sign Up Sheet will up on the notice board behind the Club House score card reader this  Wednesday. The Competition will start on 2nd of October and continue until the end of March 2022.  Competition is already hotting up even before the formal Competition starts, with both Les Brooker and Harry Caust breaking their age last Saturday.  For more details, contact Alec Dietsch.

October is a big month for competitions, so book now in MiClub bookings.  The club championships, lifestyle championships, junior champions and more.

This year we have a new Trophy event the Women's Lifestyle Trophy, this is to celebrate and recognise this important membership category for the future strength of the club.  (see photo below)
