CAPTAIN OLGA LITTLE

Congratulations to the Ladies Captain, Olga Little and her Sub Committee for the terrific job of organising the Melbourne Cup golf day sponsored by North Estate. Special mention and thank you for Sub Committee member Pauline Ryan who was a major contributor to the day’s success. The Island House Twin Towns team of Ros, Mariella and Barry did a superb job attending to needs of members and are thanked for their great service.

The shot gun start golf was enjoyed by a 50 strong field that produced some exceptional results in high winds. The sound level of the lunch festivities was well on the rise as sponsor representatives Lance Cotterill and Steve Riding arrived to join in the merriment and assist with the prize presentations. Lance is manager of the North Wharf Street venue and Steve manager at Banora Point. Contact detail for Lance and Steve are included later in this blog.

Lance said at presentation that North Estate enjoyed their long sponsorship of golf at Club Banora and talked about the mutual benefits for members and North. He noted that North was currently offering free promotion for new property sales.

The day’s Ladies team event was won by good friends Kelly Wilkinson and Janet Haddrick who complimented each other’s game turning in the exception score of 51 points. Outstanding result ladies – well done. Kelly (centre) and Janet (centre right) are pictured below after receiving the winner’s prize from Lance (centre left), Steve (far right) and Olga (far left).

The mixed team event also produced some good scores but was much closer than the Ladies competition with the winners being determined on countback. Congratulations to winners Colleen Kelly and John Skerry and also well done to runners up June and Barry McFadden.

Below Colleen proudly displays the winners voucher supported by John.

Thank you all the members who supported and enjoyed the Golf Club’s Melbourne Cup day function.

Thank you to Penny Martlew for taking on the Golf Committee position of Secretary.

Penny has experience with the role and did a very good job for members when she previously held the position.
