Saturday 29nd August
Hello I'm back, but of you know that or don't care!
Our substitute/ apprentice scribe did a great job. However he has decided that given the huge responsibilities of such a harrowing job, he wasn't quite ready. After a couple of misery of days, Saturday was awesome. Comp for the men was Mug Medal, I don't think I have seen some of the holes stretched out so much. Obviously the person setting up didn't play. Mug Winner Nick McIntyre 71 ( in a 3 man play off). Gross winner Karl Clark 80. A Grade 1st Mason Van Leeuwen 71 ( already won this year), 2nd Bernie Hedges 74 c/b. B Grade 1st Ralph Meikle 71, 2nd Gert Nel 73, 3rd Paul Hay 77 c/b, C Grade 1st Nigel Atkins 69 ( has also won this year), 2nd Mark Carrington 74 c/b, 3rd Peter Dally 74 c/b . D Grade 1st Rocco McPherson 73, 2nd Alan James 76, 3rd John Frater 78 c/b. Ladies Comp was also Nett 1st Jennifer Rutherford 74 ( she couldn't win either, already had done so this year). 2nd Jenny Van Heerden also 74 (so she got the booze and car park). Moutere Hills Vineyard Winery nearest the pins Ladies Jocelyn Thomson, Men Jon Gammon. There were 4 Twos, receiving $28 each. Nett Eagles #10 not struck. Members Draw not struck.
Sunday brought on an Ambrose to raise funds to help Mason Van Leeuwen get to South Africa to represent New Zealand in under 14 indoor cricket ( that's right mighty NZ). It turned out to be a hell of a day, the turn out was spectacular, organization and prizes were amaze balls. Dad, Mum , Georgia, Mason, Nana, Grandad, Stan, many others and especially the local community who sponsored so much. Awesome.
