President John Hanly welcomed 50 senior male members to the Club’s Main Bar on Wednesday 5th October.\u00a0 The main purpose of this annual event is to get together those long-standing members who may not be able to play golf anymore or visit the Club on a regular basis.\u00a0 In saying that, there were still a few over 75’s present who play at least twice a week on the main course and even one 90 year old who plays twice a week on the North Course – Mr Paul Latham.<\/p>\n
Past Presidents Albert Tognolini and Ross Walker were in the crowd, along with representatives of our General Committee – Vice President Con Barron, Captain David Anderson, Vice Captain Ralph Gibson, Committeeman Graeme Pepper\u00a0and Committeewoman Maxine Waller, along with the General Manager Damon Lonnie.<\/p>\n
Gus Wainwright was awarded his 50 years of service tie on the day which was a fabulous milestone as well.\u00a0 Some interesting statistics presented by the President was that the average age of those present in the room was 80 years of age with a combined tally of 3,933 years, and the average term of membership of those present was 42 years with a combined membership tally of 2052 !!<\/p>\n
A lovely morning was had by all over\u00a0coffee & cakes with a lot of memories and stories being spoken about.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t
