Harrington Friday 26th June

I have a message from Bob Mitchell at Harrington regarding our visit next Friday, this is what he said, “with regard this coming friday , we are on stand ,as our course is very wet, we wont be able to get a decision on the course ( carts allowed or not ) till wednesday ,if we get too much rain between now and then we will have to postpone ,as it wont be worth playing with only walkers.
i will let u know late wednesday ,thats the best i can do.”

I will keep you informed by email and those not on email by phone of any communications from Bob.

I have just sent invitations to  Wingham and Harrington Vets for their visits to Wauchope in July. Wingham will visit for the 2nd Leg of the Neil Grant Memorial Shield on Tuesday 21st and Harrington will visit for 2nd leg of the Harri-Hope Shield on Tuesday 28th July. Both these days will be 8:30am Shotgun starts, to allow us to accommodate an extra 20 – 25 players.

 Please read

President Peter Abell and I were invited to a meeting with the Country Club Board on Thursday night. All sub-clubs were invited with 2 representatives from each. The meeting was to distribute a paper on the achievement of many suggestions put forward by the Members and endorsed by the Board. This paper is on the bottom of this email. The message I received from this meeting is, the Board is working hard to increase business and improve cash flow. I would encourage all members to get behind what the Club is doing and don’t believe or pass on the rumours which seem to be doing the rounds. If you hear a rumour which you would like clarified, Bob Weston, Manager, is only too pleased to discuss it with you. Rumours and misinformation can only drag an establishment further down, we have enjoyed the facilities of this wonderful Club for many years, some of you have worked very hard to ensure the  club was viable in other hard times, it is  time we all got behind the Board and supported them. I would like to see all our Men’s Vets rejoin and keep our Vets a strong and solid sub club of Wauchope Country Club.

Wauchope Men's Vets weekly update 14.06


Wauchope Men’s Veteran Golfers

 

Attached is last Tuesdays results.

Next Tuesday 16th June is a Singles Vs Par event, there are vacancies, so if you are looking for a game book in now. The event is sponsored by Clark Joyce Pro Shop, when booking in please acknowledge his support of the Vets.

Thank you to all the Wauchope players who travelled to Wingham.

On Wednesday 21 players travelled down to Wingham to play the 1st leg of the Neil Grant Memorial Shield. Although the course is in good condition most of our players found it hard going. The greens were hard to read particularly for speed and like our course was wet under foot, but not quite as bad as Wauchope. We played a 300mm Preferred lie on the Fairway. Top scoring for Wauchope was John Kokantas with 35 points on a c/b from Quenton Henry also with 35 points,  John received $10 for his effort (I have it, John), the scores fell off to 33 points for Bruce Amey. The Shield is scored by the top 10 scores from each Club, our top 10 only just stayed in the 30s. Wingham dominated the winning scores with 41 and couple of 40s. The score at this stage is Wingham 374 points, Wauchope 319 points. The return game is at Wauchope on Tuesday July 21st, which will be an 8:30am Shotgun start.

After golf we all enjoyed a Roast Lunch which was served to the 70 players, prior to the presentation. It was a well organised day, thank you, Wingham Vets.

Thank you Alan Brooke for driving the Bus, he does a great job, we appreciate it. At the time of writing I am not sure, but, there was talk about the Bus breaking down at John’s River on the trip home. I don’t know how they can predict a breakdown before leaving Wingham!!!!!!

On Tuesday when you are booking for 2 weeks time, you will be booking for 4BBB Stableford Championship. If you have a preferred partner make sure you are booked in together in the Player 1&2 or Player 3&4 spots. It is the first time for a few years we have run this Championship event. Winners will get their name on a very impressive trophy.

Wauchope Men’s Vets Membership Cards will be available from next Tuesday, you will be issued with them after paying your Country club fees and if you have run out of credit with the Vets it will cost you $5.

Harrington on Friday 26th June, nominations close on Monday 15th June, if you would like to nominate, email me, I will put your name down
