Monday Mixed
Yeehah! Mixed opens are starting again, and it’s time to join the fun and enjoyment of spring golf!
Below you will see all the details... The nice thing is that it is on Monday 25th, the public holiday and we are going to be treated with a Braai afterwards.
Please book at the Pro Shop, as you can’t book online.
Mid-Am League
Our boys are doing extremely well. They have won 2 of their 3 matches and are currently in the joined first position. Mooi gedoen, manne! We will be holding thumbs for your next game.
WP Representative
We have another member that made it into the WP Golf Squad. Congrats to Ian Truter for making the side. What a Boytjie!
Below is the letter of confirmation. I didn’t believe him at first, but here is the proof:
Friday Par 3 Competition
This Friday, we are back with 3 Clubs and a Putter. Shotgun start at 15h30. There is still space for 7 players, so hurry up! If the weather turns sour on us, we will notify you before 12h00 on Friday.
This will be the 3rd last Par 3 for the season, so don’t miss it. | | |
We are renovating the rough on certain holes to eliminate all the guinea fowl scratchings and level the rough.
Holes being done are:
9th hole and the driving range Between the 1st and 2nd hole Between holes 3 and 4 Between holes 4 and 5 Right hand side of the 8th
The rough between 9th & Driving range and 1st and 2nd hole are also going to be seeded with a cape wild mix grass. These areas must be treated as GUR, there are areas where you cannot drop closer to the hole.
PLEASE remember that carts must not drive in the rotavated areas and it is a compulsory drop.
Baie dankie.
Whisky & Lucky Draw
Our Lucky draw is worth R2400-00 this Friday! Join us for your chance to win. See you there!

If you ever feel a little bit stupid, just dig this up and read it again; you'll begin to think you're a genius...
(On September 17, 1994, Alabama's Heather Whitestone was selected as Miss America 1995.)
Question: If you could live forever, would you and why?
Answer: "I would not live forever, because we should not live forever, because if we were supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever," -Miss Alabama in the 1994 Miss USA contest.
"Whenever I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can't help but cry. I mean I'd love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff." -Mariah Carey "Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life." - Brooke Shields, during an interview to become spokesperson for federal anti-smoking campaign "I've never had major knee surgery on any other part of my body." -Winston Bennett, University of Kentucky basketball forward. "Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country." -Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC "That lowdown scoundrel deserves to be kicked to death by a jackass, and I'm just the one to do it." -A congressional candidate in Texas. "Half this game is ninety percent mental." -Philadelphia Phillies manager, Danny Ozark "It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it." -Al Gore, Vice President "We've got to pause and ask ourselves: How much clean air do we need?" -Lee Iacocca "The word "genius" isn't applicable in football. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein." -Joe Theisman, NFL football quarterback & sports analyst. "We don't necessarily discriminate. We simply exclude certain types of people." - Colonel Gerald Wellman, ROTC Instructor. "Your food stamps will be stopped effective March 1992 because we received notice that you passed away. May God bless you. You may reapply if there is a change in your circumstances." -Department of Social Services, Greenville, South Carolina
"Traditionally, most of Australia 's imports come from overseas." -Keppel Enderbery "If somebody has a bad heart, they can plug this jack in at night as they go to bed and it will monitor their heart throughout the night. And the next morning, when they wake up dead, there'll be a record." - Mark S. Fowler, FCC Chairman
