YOUR GENEROSITY WILL BE RICHLY REWARDED
ONCE AGAIN THE Collection Box will be available at each Golf Day.
GIVE GENEROUSLY.
A gold coin each Golf Day is a worthy contribution.
GREEN FEES
The Treasurer in his report to the AGM revealed that the Golf Club had suffered a small loss of $90 for the year. He also revealed losses in income from Playing Fees of $200, Sale of Splits $300 and a fall in Raffle Sales of $330. These losses coupled with increases in expenditure of $450 for Trophies and Vouchers and the cost of meat increasing by $180 together with the rise in the cost of Splits and further expected rises in meat prices and the expected rise in Green Fees means that we have to look closely at our own charges for Playing Fees.
After much lively discussion it was agreed to increase Green fees for each day to $40.
BUT
THIS WILL INCLUDE THE RECEIVING $5 AT NO CHARGE OF RAFFLE TICKETS
The meeting agreed that Green Fees had not been increase for a great many years and by increasing them to $40 including your raffle tickets would be acceptable to all players.
