Due to the rice-paddy on the first fairway, a hastily-convened meeting of members decided that the first hole should be shortened to a forty-five metre par three for the competition round. Given the enormity of the flood damage to the course, it was a miracle that there was any play at all. The hardworking green staff need to be congratulated heartily for their work. Due to the conditions, the advertised Monthly Medal (and Medal of Medallists) was postponed until Sunday, January 30 and a social round was conducted instead. That’s not to say
there were no winners with club member Ken Wilson on hand
to present his annual trophies for the 2010 Eclectic competition. The winner of the trophy for the best gross score was Kev CLEANING TANK SEPTIC Harrison while Neil Chandler won the best net trophy. Many thanks go to Ken for organizing this event which he inaugurated some five years ago. As mentioned, next week’s competition will be the Monthly WARWICK – ALLORA – 4661 7513 Medal (incorporating the Medal of Medallists) with hit-off from 12.00 noon. Don’t forget your sand buckets and remember – DARLING DOWNS SEPTIC SERVICE to play is to live.
