8 YEARS --- A GREAT JOB WELL DONE.

Kathy Vincent

The Bribie Island Croquet Club recently held its Annual General Meeting. Well not in the Clubhouse due to Covid restrictions, but outside under the trees. The weather was kind, and a new committee was elected. Jan Rees was elected to be President taking over from Dick Byres who had been president for 8 very successful years –Difficult shoes to fill, but Jan is the person to do just that. Dick has done an amazing job over that time to develop Bribie Croquet Club into one of the best in Queensland. New sheds, new equipment, coaching members to be the best they can. He has been heavily involved with the Sunshine Coast Region Croquet committee and the Croquet Association of Queensland. He obtained grants which helped to develop such things as a fifth croquet court. Brooke Savage and Terry Young have also been very supportive of the club and Dick thanked them for their help over the years. To thank Dick on behalf of the club he was presented with a collage of photographs representing some of his achievements and an engraved glass plaque. After the presentation club members enjoyed drinks and finger food beautifully prepared by two of our members. So, who are the new committee you may ask? Jan Rees - President Maggie Lawson – Vice president, Lyn Beh – Treasurer, Joan Gleeson – Secretary, Gwen Connelly, Ian McCasker, Sue Green general members. We look forward to a new year with a new committee and great things to come. Why not come along and have a go it is such fun. Call the clubhouse on 3408 6411 Just leave a message if there is no reply.

Hole 7 Rita de Bondt, Hole 14 (Top Shot) Mary Barbeler, Hole 16 Gwen Clutterbuck On Thursday 24 February 23 brave (or quite silly) women went out to play in the rain. 15 of those players managed to complete 18 holes. Since then, as we all know, there has been an unprecedented rain event. Now the course is closed for at least the rest of this week. Here are some photos of our 16th and 17th “fairways”. On Sunday 27 February, another event, which was all the District Committee’s Day, to be held at Murgon, was also called off, but has now been rescheduled for Sunday 21 March. Hopefully by then all our District Golf Courses should be up and running again.
