A Happy New Year to all our members:
New Year's Cup - that's a stroke competition on the Tuart course.
Won by Keith the last two years. Could someone wrench it from him this year?
We all recognise that stroke is a tough competition for some of us higher handicappers. There's always that hole where you'd like to just pick up the ball and walk on to the next tee.
Notice Frances got her name on all the novelties this week. Unfortunately, didn't manage to secure a ball on any of them (but picked up one in the raffle, to compensate).
We had the best raffle ever, with all the numbers sold.
And a whip round for Jimmy, who's leaving next week for a position as a golf pro in Myanmar. Jimmy has been a good friend to SOS, and we wish him well.
Final votes for the new SOS shirt have been counted, and in spite of a last minute flood of votes for #2, the resounding winner, by a margin of more than 2 to 1, was choice #1.
Gary and I will be visiting the factory this week, and will let everyone know the schedule from here on in.
We'll get them ready as soon as poss.
Your subscriptions for 2020 are now due, $130 to the SOS account or to Shelley in cash.
A date for your diaries, Thursday January 30th we'll be having the Par 3 competition at the Lake Claremont course, teeing off from 5:30 pm. The cost will be $30 for the game, a meal and drinks. We'll get details of the meal choices shortly.
It was a very pleasant evening when we played last year, with about 25 SOS members taking part. Do feel free to bring a guest as well.
This week, Keith certainly had a good attempt at retaining the Cup for a third year, just being pipped by Stephanie.
If you've been losing your rhythm recently, might be worth taking some lessons from this bloke:
Next week, Stableford on the Old Course. See you there.
