Men’s Golf 28/3 Change of Game

This Saturday our competition round was to be a Single Stableford. This has now been changed to a TEXAS STABLEFORD – Best 3 of 4 Scores to count.

The course is still water logged and a lot of rough still hasn’t been mowed due to this. If the sun keeps shining and the wind blows, we will have carts on this Saturday but remember Fairways and paths only. This will be policed and enforced.

Sunday Mixed Fundraiser for Twinnies Gives

The Golf Bag that Keeps on Giving! ⛳️✨

We are blown away by the incredible spirit of our members! Last year, two golf bags were donated by the Men’s Club for our Mixed Christmas raffle. In a wonderful turn of events, one bag was won and immediately donated back to be auctioned for Twinnies Gives.

A massive thank you to Brian and Marilyn Brown for offering it up for auction, where it was snapped up for $150 by John and Vivienne Sulijmani.

But the generosity didn’t stop there! John and Vivienne kindly offered the bag back to be raffled off once again, with all proceeds going directly to the Twinnies Gives Charity.

The Winners were announced at our AGM Saturday 21st March.  

🏆 WE HAVE OUR WINNERS! 🏆

Our 100 Board Fundraiser for Twinnies Gives was a massive success! Because of your incredible generosity, every single square was snapped up, turning a donated golf bag into a significant contribution for a great cause.

A huge congratulations to our lucky winners:

🥇 1st Prize ($200 Golf Bag): Maren Cooper (Number 46!)

🥈 2nd Prize (Skincare Pack from Cosmetic Alchemist): Ken Mount (Number 49!)

This wouldn’t have been possible without the “triple-gifted” golf bag from the Men’s Club, the Browns, and the Sulijmanis. A special shout-out also goes to Cosmetic Alchemist for their generous donation of the skincare runner-up prize valued at over $150! ✨

Thank you to everyone who bought a square. Your $5 made a real difference for Twinnies Gives. 🖤💛 A wonderful story of community spirit! It’s incredible to see a single donation transform into multiple rounds of fundraising through the repeated generosity of our members. A total of $650 has been raised and will be handed over to Twinnies Gives in April. We will let everyone know of time and date of presentation.

Thank you to everyone involved for proving that our community’s heart is as big as ever! ❤️

Cheers Katrina
