On Monday 1 December 2014 we played at Long Island Golf Club. Our game on the day was a Stableford event for the Ken Gangell Perpetual Trophy.
President Bernie welcomed all members to Long Island GC and how good it was to see everyone again. He asked members to put their hands together to show their appreciation for the Golf Club here for allowing us to use their facilities.
There were 57 starters on the day.
Apologies were received from Colin Wiseman, John Boyce and Peter Charlewood.
Peter Charlewood had the flu, and could not play.
We had two guests today: Ian Furneaux, guest of John Hiscock and Ian Lacey, guest of Gerry OConnor.
Welcome, and thanks to John and Gerry for bringing them along.
Bernie thanked our starters on the day, Jeff Taylor and Malcolm Turner. He thanked them for volunteering as we appreciated their help.
He reminded members that we now have an agreement with the House of Golf at Brighton whereby they are subsidising all our winners vouchers, so please support the House of Golf at Brighton and tell them you are from the Vic Vets group.
There was one known achievement in the past month:
Members were reminded that this was our 65th anniversary year and that our Club shirts,
Club jumpers and hats were available for purchase.
See Daryl Edwards if you wish to purchase our range of products.
The Club's web site is now up and running. It has been updated with next years courses and some of our Honour Board details.

No questions were asked, so Bernie handed the meeting over to our Captain, Donald MacDonald, who announced the winners for the day.
