WE have wonderful volunteers at our club including Ruben Ross who has painted the bar area after our renovations.

A garden working bee was also held on Monday to maintain our beautiful grounds and once again our volunteers were out in full force.

It was great to see the green full on Saturday with divisions two, three and four all playing at home.

Division four had a good win and Peter Moore's team of Kaye Murrell, Gary Harris and Neil Sandford scored eight shots on one end.

Well done division four; Saturday pennant resumes on January 20.
