PGC Newsletter 28.10.2020

AGM AGENDA: As previously reported, it has been necessary to bring our AGM forward by 1 week to Wednesday 18th November. Eligible members will receive the agenda and reports via email in the next few days.We are looking for a Secretary, a Club Captain and committee. It is imperative that we obtain a Secretary – we cannot function unless we have someone in this role. Without a Secretary, we cannot apply for or receive a Bar licence. Think about the implications of this!

Along with our team, the other teams are Wellington, Hawkes Bay-Poverty Bay and Taranaki. There are 8 women in each team, and they play each other in matchplay. Results were mixed, with Manawatu-Wanganui being placed 2nd equal with Wellington.
