At our AGM on 25 October 2001, the following were elected to the Ladies Committee for 12 months:

Following this meeting, the new Mount Lofty Flag (featuring the Blue Wren) was raised for the first time by Nan Francis (Life Member) and Dot Hartley. The occasion was marked by a toast with Champagne kindly donated by members of the Ladies Committee. The flag was purchased by the Lady Members own funds. Gala Day on 8th November 2001 raised $651.00. Some of this money will be used for renovations to the Lily Waite House (Ladies Locker Room) including a skylight and lighting.

The Presentation Dinner on 23 November 2001 was well attended and most of our Lady Trophy Winners were present to receive their prizes. Our Social Committee was responsible for the lovely flowers and table arrangements on the evening. They received special mention and were applauded by the guests. Grace Barrow and Dot Hartley delighted us with a very individual version of "My Favourite Things".

Good golfing to all members in 2002.

Answer to Rules Question
He could replay the stroke (penalty) or drop unplayable then drop again (penalty).
If he does not want a penalty, his only option is to play the ball as it lies. He is not entitled to relief from the bushes, only from the path.

That's Historical

While looking up details for the Meet ..... article, I chanced to notice the names of these people who were, according to Club records, the top ten, long term, active members of MLGC:

In today's monetary terms these people have contributed the equivalent of around $500,000 to the club in subscriptions and calls over their four decades or more of membership. There is a slight discrepancy in the recorded joining date and the actual date of signing up for membership. The club generally recorded the date when applicants became substantive members - years of provisional membership didn't count. For instance, I actually signed up in late 1959 and have played here since then, but I was not offered full membership until 1961 because of a waiting period for provisional members.
