Manager's Message
Marcus Niles

AGM
The club’s AGM is to be held on Thursday 13 June.  We are now calling for nominations for the 3 Board positions, Club Captain and President.  Attached is a form to be completed and returned to the office by 12pm on 23 May.

If you have any general business, if you could please email that to me by 23 May so I can add that to the agenda.  This doesn’t preclude anyone raising items from the floor, it just gives everyone a chance to consider it prior. 

Autonomous Mower
Many of you will notice the robot mower cruising around the 5th hole.  It is with us for another week or so on a trial basis to see how it operates.  It is controlled by GPS, so please don’t touch the machine. 

Cafe
A big thank you to the members for their support of Conrad & Tina in the kitchen.  Their extended hours are being well received and the feedback on the food has been great.  I highly recommend the lasagna!

Ladies Matchplay Championships

Most semi finals are being played this week, or have already been played, so all divisions are on target for the finals on Sunday 26th May.

I had the privilege of joining two ladies playing their semi final yesterday. They are both wonderful ladies, who both played great golf, including separate pars on the 14th and 15th. The match was decided by a putt on the 18th. Very entertaining golf Mary Findlay and Sue Muir! (the latter being the victor)
