IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN.

Kathy Vincent

How did Christmas come around so quickly this year ?? We are now into the excitement of parties, lunches, presents and all manner of fun. Well, the same applies to the Croquet Club. On the 8th of December, they held the Croquet Club Christmas lunch at Pacific Harbour Golf Club which was a great success. The food was lovely and everyone joined in with a Secret Santa game with a twist. This a really good game as long as you aren’t dyslexic and don’t have a problem with right and left !!. It just shows that the members like a bit of fun as well as playing croquet. It was great that Florence our life member was able to join us too.

At the Christmas lunch, the award for the most improved player is given, and the award is presented by the previous year’s most improved player. This year’s winner was Joan Gleeson. Joan hasn’t been a member long but has already tried her hand at Ricochet, Association and Golf Croquet. Janee Molyneux winner of 2021 presented the award with Jan Rees the croquet Club President.

To round off the afternoon members then tried their hand at mini golf. Oh dear, I think most of them need to stick to croquet !! But it was all good fun and members are all looking forward to a very Merry Christmas with lots of exciting croquet in 2023. Have a good break.2
