Gold Coast Golf Club Notes 20th November 2017:
Annual General Meeting:
The Annual General Meeting of the Men’s Club will be held on Tuesday 21st November at 8.00 p.m. The nomination sheet is posted in the kiosk. This is the time when any member can put forward suggestions about the running of the Club and have their say about what goes on.
Winter Rates are now operating in the Gold Coast:
Monday to Friday: Golf €15, Golf and Carvery Lunch €25
Saturday/Sunday: Golf €20, Golf and Carvery Lunch €30
Well Done:
John McArthur is having a great time of it lately. Last week he was part of the Stradbally team that won the U15 County Hurling Final against Ferrybank and last Saturday completed the double when Stradbally won the U15 Football County Final. Then on Sunday he played Winter League and won a category prize with 44 pts.
Lions Annual Christmas Appeal:
This year our Lions Club Week will run from Monday 4th to Sunday 10th December. During that week all competition money collected will go directly to the Christmas Appeal. At a special awards night held in October by the Lions Club reference was made to the extraordinary amount of money raised by the Gold Coast for the Annual Christmas Appeal, the amount is in the region of €30,000. It is indeed a major tribute to the members of the Club who always show their generosity and willingness to contribute to good causes.
Premier Butcher @Dawn Meats Winter League 2017/2018
Another good week with plenty of activity on the course and also some great golf being played as well. Over 300 rounds have now been played in the league so far and with the weather outlook for the week looking okay hopefully the number of games played will continue to set records.
All the scores for week three are on the website: goldcoastgolfclub.com
Decisions on the Rules of Golf App:
There is a very good app available free to download on the Play Store called Golf Decisions 2016 – 2017. It gives each rule of golf and also gives many definitions for each rule. There are also a number of very short videos illustrating how to apply the rules. All golfers should learn something from this app.
What we have to offer:
Here in the Gold Coast we have some great facilities, such as a top-class golf course with superb greens, playable all the year round, a leisure centre and gym and a hotel which is renowned for its excellent food. We offer very competitive membership rates in the golf club, the lowest full membership rate in the area and we can provide dual memberships to both the golf club and the leisure centre at reduced rates. Now is the time to talk to us if you are thinking of joining as we can offer some very attractive packages at the moment.
