Training and Development Courses

Other advantages for having a synthetic: • Being able to play 24/7 and for 365 days a year therefore providing the opportunity for the green to be used for community events and other revenue generating activities throughout the year • Allowing members and visitors to play at night on a faster green and under floodlights, thus increasing participation and bar profits • Allowing members and visitors to play during winter when our grass greens are wet or closed for maintenance and the capability to restart play after rain without damaging the green • Remaining a more consistent surface performance throughout the game, as artificial surfaces are not as affected by the weather as are grass greens and hold their speed when grass greens are slow.

Vacancies on the Governing Council

As I write this report the positions of Office Manager and Treasurer are still vacant. These positions are essential to the continuing success of our Club. These positions are currently being shared by the three current members of the Governing Council and are increasing the load on them. Regardless of your membership category: full, recreational, or social, if you have the skills required for either position, I urge you to put your hand up and contact me on 0413 613 369 and enquire as to what time commitment and other skills are required as soon as you can.
