The next Mid Week Medal is on Wednesday 16th June on the Burnside.

To avoid detours, it is not necessary to go to the Hotel and sign-in before play as long as your card is clearly marked with the competition name and you let your playing partner(s) know you are entering.

However, when you return your card to the medal box, please ensure that you then enter your name on the competition sheet so that the Match Secreatry can cross-reference cards with entries.  Retrospective payment of sweep fees is a matter of conscience, or you can give your partner a pound on the 1st tee!

The 2010 list showing which course will be used for each Saturday's Club competition is attached.

Members who wish to play in a competition should:

    arrange a time in the ballot,

    enter their names in the folder at the Pro Shop entrance of the hotel,

    put their sweep money in the medal box in an envelope marked with their name, 

    return their signed cards - whether complete or not - to the medal box.

THANKS JOHN

John Lindquist, a distinguished past captain of the Dalhousie Golf Club, and our devoted and meticulous secretary for the past ten years, has decided to retire.

At the club's February general meeting, present captain Graeme Paton paid tribute to John's great service to the club. 

Other past captains acknowledged the vital support and guidance John has given them. Graeme presented to John a glass bowl engraved with a picture of the old Dalhousie clubhouse. John is particularly noted for the military precision with which he has organised and orchestrated the club's annual dinners for so many years - but his army experience and attention to detail have been evident in every aspect of his work for the club. He is rightly proud (or at least WAS rightly proud) of the fact that Tiger Woods' father asked him (John) for his autograph when he was using the club facilities during one of the Scottish Opens. It is hoped that John will continue his efforts to keep everyone in order on the first tee on Saturday mornings, and also to keep the hotel staff on their toes.   The good burghers of Carnoustie certainly have to keep their wits about them as the Galloping Major charges along the High Street on his super de luxe streamlined buggie. All members of the club will wish to thank John for all he has done and pass on their kindest regards to him and his wife. 

The club is very fortunate that Walter Ruark has agreed to take over the duties of secretary.

The annual review of Club Members' Handicaps has taken place and by clicking on the link below members can check their Handicap which will become effective on 1st April 2009. Home Club Members where changes have taken place have been highlighted in yellow.

Wishing all the members an enjoyable 2009 Golfing Season
