Croquet week ending 20th October

There were no major surprises at golf croquet last week Tuesday. The best efforts of the day were husband and wife, Ken and Marjorie Styles, who each won their three matches. Other winners of three matches were Lorna Field and Kevin Rubie.

The annual general meeting was held after the finish of croquet. We are pleased to advise that Elvy Quirk was voted in as President and Treasurer for the second year, with John Cole as Assistant President.

Colleen Liebich was again voted in as club Secretary. Steve Karaitiana from the Forbes Council, chaired the meeting.

Thank you Steve for your leadership.

Saturday’s Aussie croquet was spent trying to fit the three games in before the rain came. Thanks to the Forbes city council and some hard work by our youthful members, our two new courts were ready for competition. The winners of three games were John Browne, John Cole, Bruce Field and Kevin Rubie. Congratulations to you all!
