Croquet Notes

September 14, 2017 by Maggi Barnard

Last Tuesday was a very busy day following the croquet games with the club’s Annual General Meeting, where a new committee was elected.

Congratulations to Elvy Quirk on becoming the new President. This was held by a general meeting where some great decisions were made to help us through the next year.

Thank you to the Post Office Hotel for allowing the space to conduct meetings, and for hosting the birthday lunch in their new restaurant. We were served with some very delicious food followed by a luscious birthday cake for dessert.

The winners of the day with three winning games were Lorna Field and Harley Stewart. Congratulations to John Allegri, a very new and emerging player with consistent wins every week in both golf and Aussie games.

The cold is still with us and we have two members in hospital as well as those who are still battling colds and flu. Roll on spring and some warmer weather.

Last Saturday, Dorelle Scott and Bob Murray were the clean sweepers with three winning games each followed by seven members winning two out of the three games. Congratulations everyone.
