Charity Day 2022

Charity Day was held in-house to raise money for Ovarian Cancer Australia. The field of 49 added a fabulous flourish of ‘teal’ across the fairways, on what turned out to be a great day for golf. Everyone enjoyed a light lunch afterwards and with the addition of raffles we were able to raise a very healthy $1000 for this worthy cause. Thanks to all our members for their kind and very generous donations .

Club Championships 2021 Presentations

Club Championships 2021

The Club Championsips were modified and played over 2 weeks due to the Covid pandemic.

Christmas Lunch 2021

Due to to the sudden closure of The Brighton Savoy the Committee have had to research a venue for this year’s Christmas Lunch. We have been very fortunate to secure the dining room at Woodlands Golf Club for our event on 2nd December………..watch this space.

Vale – Maureen Stewart 2021

Our esteemed Life Member Maureen Stewart passed away on 10th July 2021.

Maureen joined Nepean in 1998 and very quickly became an integral part of the Club. In 2004 she became Vice President and a delegate to the VGL in 2004-5 and again in 2008. She then took on the role of President from 2006-2007 and was at that time a Trustee of the Pavilion.

From 2010 – 2019 she was Club Almoner, taking responsibility for the welfare of our Club members. This was a role for which she was well suited. Her pleasant, caring manner was a great support to all. With a kind word she was able to put them at ease, supporting them through illness and loss.

She was made a Life Member in 2019, in recognition of the important role she played at Nepean but unfortunately became ill soon after and was unable to continue playing.

She will be sadly missed and always fondly remembered as one of our “ladies in the dam.”

Charity Guest Day 2021

A colourful day dawned as 86 members and their guests took to the field for our Annual Charity Guest Day. This year was particularly poignant as we honoured our dear friend Carmel who died last year during COVID from Ovarian cancer.

The setting was particularly festive as everyone made a supreme effort to wear the Ovarian “teal”.

Lunch was held at the Brighton Clubhouse. Judith welcomed Carmel’s daughter Shannon who kindly agreed to attend and she even baked her mother’s famous banana cake which was given as a raffle prize.

…. and the WINNERS were ….

Getaway 2021

After a 2 year hiatus due to CoviD, 27 members returned to Rosebud Country Club for the Annual Getaway, masterfully organised by Maryanne & Cathy.

Day 1 – Teams event.

Day 2 – The Sandra Ritchie Plate.

This year’s winner was Dot Stannard with a great round of 38 pts, closely followed by Elaine Pausewang who took home the “crying prize”.

Anticipation and expectation rose to fever pitch as our glamourous and glitzy Rock Star celebrities gathered for this gala extravaganza!

The ‘who’s who of attendees ……..

Pennant 2021

It’s been a long time between drinks but the drought has broken – here’s hoping for a flood!

2020 VALE Marj Wort

Marj Wort died peacefully on September 11, 2020 at the age of 97.

Marj was a Nepean member from the 1980’s until 2011 and was a gentle and lovely lady. She had a particular affinity with our cork oak trees. Whenever a branch came down (usually because of a wayward golf shot) she would take it home to her husband Max to craft the bark into a pen covering.

Rest in peace Marj.

Covid 19 update 3…….10 July, 2020

Further info from our Captain following communication from Golf Australia……….

• We are not allowed to run Competitions, though we can continue to handicap.  Check out the Leaderboard (MiScore) after your game and you can see how you went in the Non Competition. We can only play social golf (handicapped!!) but will try to mix it up with Par and Stableford and will aim to catch up on some of our major Competitions after this is all over but we are fast running out of time.
• The Margaret King Matchplay Competition is unfortunately suspended and we will see what we can do about extending the end date and trying to catch it up but it won’t be easy.
• The Pro Shop can no longer provide any rental equipment. This includes pull buggies, mobile carts (even with a medical certificate) and golf clubs.  If you currently use any of these, unfortunately you will need to make other arrangements.

We will continue to play Nepean golf, in pairs every Thursday as long as we are able. Stay safe and stay focused on the end game!

Covid 19 update 2 …….. 8 July, 2020

Golf Australia have issued the following communication regarding Covid-19. The relevant section being:

Clubhouses must also close as of midnight tonight, July 8, for all services other than take-away food and beverage.

Golf Australia and the PGA of Australia will communicate further information as it relates to facility operations, including coaching, Pro-Shops, driving ranges, warm-up areas and other related activities as soon as possible.

We are continuing to work with government on understanding further ramifications of Stage 3 restrictions on golf clubs/facilities.“

Our captain is, as always, well ahead of the game with her decision to make tomorrow’s game a Stableford round. Enjoy the freedom of golf!!!!

Covid 19 update ……. 8 July, 2020

There is currently no directive regarding golf from GA however the Pro Shop has indicated that we can only play in pairs. This being the case the Pairs Championship will be postponed and this week’s round will be a handicapped Stableford competition.

Please check Jane’s latest email for the amended timesheet. We will keep you updated as information becomes available.

Welcome to Maria Graetsch

2020 VALE Carmel Wonnacott

Carmel was a regular member of Nepean WGC for over 15 years. Sadly, she passed away, peacefully on Saturday, 20th June, surrounded by her family. Playing golf was very important to her. She enjoyed the fun and camaraderie of playing with her friends at Nepean.  She loved the club and the close friends she made whilst playing in the 9 Hole Competition. Always so elegant, gracious lady, with a beaming smile which we will miss. Even whilst undergoing intensive, rigorous treatment, she continued to play, continued to smile and always with her ‘face’ on! Carmel was an inspiration to us all. We will miss her, but she will be forever in our hearts. Our thoughts are with Barry and the family.

New Handicapping & Booking system

Nepean have signed up with MiClub to be a part of Onegolf, an electronic Handicapping and Booking system.

To enter the system, you click on the OneGolf icon  – located at the top right of any  page on our website.

Clicking on the OneGolf icon will take you straight to the Login page of MiClub.  You will be asked for your Username and Password which Jane has emailed to you.

You can used the system to:-

•  book tee times, up to two weeks in advance
• check your Golflink handicap
• check weekly results

Once social distancing restrictions are lifted, we will have a computer terminal set up in the Pavilion for you to use.  For the next month or so a Match Committee member will be there to assist you.

You can use the system to book your next tee times instead of writing your name on the advance time sheets and to enter your score at the end of the game.

We encourage the use of the free MiScore App which you can use instead of a score card.  If you are able to use MiScore it will not be necessary to enter your scores at the end of the game as your score will automatically be sent through.

Golfing Myths by Travis Harrison

Travis is our “go to guy” when it comes to our golf. He has sent through a video for Nepean members – good to see him wearing his belt!!!

2020 VALE Marj Carlos

Marj Carlos passed away peacefully today, 8 April 2020, at the age of 96.  It was just her time and had nothing to do with the current pandemic we are faced with.

Marj joined Nepean in 1983 and was a full playing member until 2010 when she took on social membership.  She was also involved with both Dendy and Wyuna.

She was one of those “little old ladies” that could beat the pants off you in matchplay.  You know the sort, straight down the middle, one chip and one putt and leaving you wondering how the hell she beat you when you outdrove her by miles!  In fact, she played pennant for us during the 80’s and 90’s, captaining her teams in 1988, 1989 and 1991.  Not surprisingly she had a very good win record and in 1989 won all of her matches.

Her support of Nepean came in many different way including trophy donations and trade table goods  … she loved her flowers and would be in her garden constantly, often in later years to the despair of her family due to the occasional fall she had.

She was a cheerful, kind and caring soul who will be missed greatly, particularly by her good friend Flo Box. 

Rest in peace Marj.

Brighton Golf Course Closure

The Brighton Golf Course will close tonight at 6pm – 28th March until further notice.

Golf Australia will review this decision on 13th April but until then the course is not to be used under any circumstance.

LMS will continue to keep us updated.

Please stay safe and well.

Letter from the President March 23, 2020

Hi everyone

Things keep changing very quickly in our day to day lives at present and our Golf competition is no exception. The Victorian Government’s decision to discourage any kind of social gathering means that it would be best if we postpone formal competitions until further notice. We don’t want to put any of our members at risk by encouraging them to join in this kind of group activity. We have also decided to cancel the Getaway that was to be held at Rosebud on the 26^th and 27^th April.  As well the Charity/Guest day that was scheduled for the 14^th May will no longer be held. The Committee will review this at our April meeting and update you then.

We are not in a position to offer any guidance as to whether you should continue to play golf. We are waiting on advice from Golf Australia about whether the Government closures relate to golf. At the moment Brighton Golf Course is remaining open so if you choose you can play social golf. Another option is to join in the handicapped competition run by the Pro shop. You will need to contact the Pro shop directly to book a tee time. Please adhere to the guidelines set by the golf course and Golf Australia. These include leaving the pin in at all times, no touching the rakes (so no need to rake bunkers) and also take your own sand bucket. They have also put foam noodles in the holes so that it is easier to get your ball out without touching the flagpole.

Thanks for your understanding at this difficult time.

Regards
Judith

COVID-19 update March 20, 2020

LMS have advised us that they are implementing strategies to minimalise the spread of Covid-19. This is to safeguard both their staff and the general public.

Apart from obvious precautions they would encourage the use of payment by card to reduce ‘handling’ of cash.

We will continue to keep you abreast of any changes or recommendations with regard the playing of our game. Our intention is to continue with competitions as long as it is deemed to be safe.

The day of March 19, 2020

The day of March 19 was the day of implementation of Covid-19 guidelines. Table duty is now a hazardous task, valiantly taken on by Fiona ably assisted by Jane.

In all seriousness, Nepean is taking measures to safeguard the health and wellbeing of its members thereby ensuring the integrity of our weekly competitions.
Social distancing …

Unfortunately, while Anne is looking dry her bag and buggy, not so. A gust of wind caught her umbrella on the 18th tee … and the rest is history.

2020 Opening Day

The season is off to a flying start following Opening Day on 6th February. A field of 48 players on a bright, warm day. Perfect for golf. The President, Judith Freidin and Captain, Jane Belcher welcomed 55 members, which included 3 potential new members, to the Pavilion for lunch and presentations.


2019-20 Summer Golf

The summer golf season was again a huge success with 136 players over 5 weeks.  Only one week needed to be cancelled due to rain.

All due to the great work of the Summer Golf conveners … Stella Torrance and Geni Brewster.  For the last day and presentations, 30 January, they put on a beautiful spread and the recipe for Geni’s dip is below for those that asked.

Geni’s Tuna Dip

1 large tin of tuna in oil – drained
2 stalks of celery – finely chopped
2-3 spring onions – finely chopped
2 tablespoons of parley – finely chopped
mayonnaise – to taste
salt & pepper

Mix together and add 3-4 hard boiled eggs, chopped.  Lightly mix again.

2020 9 & DINE FOR BUSH FIRE RELIEF

Our 9 & Dine was held on Friday evening January 10, 2020 … we desperately need rain but did it have to be then.

Not to be thwarted … our 9 & Dine turned into a Wine & Dine … thanks to Rosie and her intepid band of helpers.  All profits will be donated to the Bush Relief.

It was a great evening although a bit of golf would have been good too … a couple of the fellows did go out to play and were rewarded with a golf ball prize for their fortitude (the rest of us were far more sensible).

2019 AGM

Our AGM was held at the Pavilion on November 14 –  52 members attending.

The most important part of the meeting was the election of a new Life Member Maureen Stewart for outstanding contribution to the club over her 21 years at Nepean. 
She has held the offices of Vice President, President, Trustee, VGL Delegate and most recently Almoner. 
In the words of her granddaughter Lucy – she is “Hands down the most elegant, kind, moral, funny, resourceful, decent and exquisitely kind and wise woman I have ever, and will ever know. A class act, in the true sense of the expression”.   We think that covers our Maureen and we are proud to have her as our newest Life Member.

The new committee was elected with 2 members retiring – Raylene Grapsas and Judy Evans, with Carole Schmoll and Noeleen Dix joining the committee.

After the completion of the AGM, the 2019 prizes were awarded by outgoing President Rosie McLean.

2019 Brighton Shield

2018 Christmas Lunch

Our Christmas lunch was held at the Brighton Savoy on Thursday 6 December which ends the official Nepean season for 2018.  As always the Brighton Savoy provided us with a delightful venue and lunch.

Recipe from “the Queen of Florentines”

By popular demand, our “Queen of Florentines” Maryanne O’Connell has released her secret recipe.  This all came about because a certain life member just had to taste them and scoffed the lot, leaving none for Christmas.  Her plea was to find the “queen” of these baked beauties and get this recipe so her family would be none the wiser.

So here it is with a preparation time of 15-30 minutes (depending on your talent for or ineptitude of baking).

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups of sultanas
1 1/4 cups of slivered almonds
3 cups of cornflakes, lightly crushed
1 cup of chopped glace cherries
1 tin condensed milk
125 g chocolate

Method

1. Combine all ingredients except chocolate in a large bowl
2. Line baking trays with baking paper
3. Drop mixture in small heaps onto trays
4. Bake in moderately slow oven for 15-20 minutes
5. Allow to cool before lifting off trays
6. Chop the chocolate and melt over a saucepan of hot water
7. Spread melted chocolate over base of biscuit

Recipe Notes

Trays must be lined with paper, not foil, otherwise the biscuits are hard to remove.
Florentines will keep for at least 2 weeks in an airtight container.
With the red and green cherries they look great to serve at Christmas time.

We golfers scrub up quite well!

2018 VGL Championships – Minor Champion
