Hi Members
It’s the big week, with the City of Wellington on Saturday. Good news, the weather looks pretty good. Great news, we have 98 entrants. Please make sure you are early to register - 8am if you haven't prepaid. The Draw is attached below.
THE COURSE IS CLOSED UNTIL 3pm ( apologies to those members who managed to get a booking in whilst we populated the time sheet with COW players)
And double bonus, the men’s interclub selectors have it tuned in as a key event. So if you’re keen on interclub in 2021 enter and play well, and you’re halfway there.
THANKS
A big thank you to all who helped out on Sunday to spruce up the club. Special Thanks to the Shirties for cleaning up the practice nets, Boyd Kenna and David Wenden for painting the distance markers, spraying the deck and David for also fixing the cart shed door also Jono Wake for just doing what Jono does!!!. We have a call out today if anyone has trailer and could collect a load of mulch from the green sheds and then spread on the practice nets it would be a big help.

COVID PRECAUTIONS
Please keep up the handwashing, the checking in, and all of the other usual precautions around this. The authorities fear people are getting lax, and the events of this week have shown it can resurface very quickly.
KARORI CUP
Club Day on a Sunday has shown an increase in participation which is a positive spin, it’s so much fun out there, then reading the results later.
The Karori Cup is a year-long event based on Stableford Competition on Sundays. All you need to do to enter is hit "YES" for Club Day.
At the end of November we will be calculating the best 10 stableford rounds from each player to find out the 2020 Karori Cup winner. There is definitely still plenty of time to get those good score cards coming in!
