Another good week of golf at Macksville Country Club, with Rod Edwards Day taking center stage on Saturday, 3 October. Congratulations to K. Heaton on taking out the win, with P. Lambert finishing runner-up. A big thank you to Rod Edwards for his continued sponsorship and support of golf at Macksville. It’s the generosity of our sponsors that helps keep these competitions going, and we certainly appreciate it. The midweek competition also saw some familiar names among the winners, with S. Roberts taking the honours, while D. Hughes and C. Gilmour both returned an impressive 39 points in the ladies’ Stableford competition. Congratulations to all our winners, placegetters and ball winners, and thanks to everyone who got out on the course during the week.
Greens Renovations are happening on the 12th, 13th and 14th of October. Ricky will need a hand over the three days at different times. If you are available to help out, there is a sheet on the Notice Board where you can add your name and contact details. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Volunteers Needed
The Golf Committee is seeking assistance from members who can volunteer a small amount of their time to help around the course and support the ongoing presentation of our facilities.
There are a number of tasks where additional help would make a significant difference, including ball collection on the driving range, rough maintenance, course clean-up, gardening, minor repairs, and general course presentation. No special skills are required, and members can contribute as much or as little time as they are able.
If you would like to lend a hand or simply learn more about how you can assist, please speak with a member of the Golf Committee or contact the Club. Your support would be greatly appreciated.
