BOB WHITTLE

 We are very sad to report the passing of Bob Whittle. He has been a vital cog in the running of our golf course for many, many years and will be missed greatly. 
Many of you will have enjoyed your "weekly meeting" with him as you were finishing and he was starting. He always had  friendly banter. 

Even since the passing of his wife, Pat, last year, he has been keen to continue his relationship with the Lady golfers, contributing both money for end of year prizes and numerous golf balls that he collected in his time working on the course to keep it tidy!

Tributes for Mollie Chapman

Afternoon everyone, Some of you may wish to show your sorrow at Mollie's passing. Rather than inundate Jenny and her family with flowers, the CCWGA has suggested a donation to Mollie's favourite charity. She was a long time supporter of the Fred Hollows Foundation and in discussions with her family, it was decided that perhaps setting up a fundraising page in Mollie's honour would be appropriate. The link to that page is below: https://fundraise.hollows.org/fundraisers/jennychapman   The Fred Hollows Foundation works in over 25 countries and has helped over 3 million people. Their focus in Australia is to eliminate avoidable blindness in the Indigenous population. All donations, no matter how small, in Mollie's name will add to her legacy.
