Maurice O’Neill Wins Bowling Club Scroungers Competition

The Ongerup Bowling Club has held a Friday night Scroungers competition over the last 6 months.

This has been organised and sponsored by Mick Creagh and Ongerup Farm Supplies

Last Saturday the finals were held to determine who would be the “King Scrounger”.

After the first round, the rink winners were Maurice O’Neill, George Johnson and Don Sclater, so they

played off in the final. Maurice was the eventual winner, with George the runner up. Congratulations

Maurice. George was grateful to be no longer playing to a 36 handicap (the maximum handicap pos-

sible).

The Tail Enders from the first round also played off with David Nield being the “Best of the Tail

Enders”. Special mention was made of those three players who had managed to score the maximum

6 points from an end. Well done Ashley, George and Mick.

Bowls in the ditch counted against a player’s score and Don

achieved the highest number with 6 bowls in the ditch.

The day was well run (thanks Mick), the weather was perfect for

bowls (no wind, so no one could complain that the wind took their

bowl) and it concluded with a steak and salad dinner.

Thanks to everyone who has competed in the Friday night competi-

tion. The club closing day will be Sunday 10th April

ONGERUP GOLF CLUB,

Established 1936-Still going strong in 2016

18 hole layout , 6093 Metres , PAR 72, ACR 70. Separate Practice fairway and Green.

18 hole layout designed by Roy Weston and John Wanless in conjunction with PGA professional MARK DUDER. Play

commenced 1983 on new design.

Australian Course Rating initially established by A O’meehan and G White using WAGA guidelines and updated later by

WAGA.

The Course meanders through a couple of hundred acres of native pristine bush on the edge of town and is very sheltered

in many areas. Every hole is completely different to each other which is quite unique in a country layout.

Bird life is everywhere and there at least 40 or so resident kangaroos, very quiet

and tame.

You never know what you will see if you stroll the pleasant links at the Ongerup

Golf Club.

Course records held by Men-John Wanless-69. Ladies- Janette Thompson –79

2016 SEASON NOW BEGINING with new committee and new ideas.

Opening Day Sunday 24th of April at 12 noon sharp. Sausage sizzle provided from

11 AM before play. Mixed Ambrose completion with tea following play.

Full Membership $75. Social Membership $20.

SUNDAY GOLF- Names in by 11.45 am for a 12 noon Hit Off

9 HOLE PLAYERS welcome- be there approximately 2.30 pm for a comfortable

finish. Casual players welcome any time, non members please pay by way of a

gold coin donation in box provided.

All PLAYERS WELCOME- NEW and OLD. We have had new players during 2015

and the future is looking better but we need support from our shrinking community

or the district could lose this fine facility in the future.

Currently the course presents very well given the huge amount of work done in the

last three years. Fairways totally renovated, all Tee boxes rebuilt and new sand

greens constructed.

Fairways are mown and the Sand greens have been brushed up ready for play.

The 19th hole is there as always, welcoming when the game is over at our freshly

painted clubhouse. It looks fresh and inviting to match the previously revamped

interior. This work was done courtesy of Skeigh Weston.

Golf can be played and enjoyed at any level depending on the individual. It’s a great walk for all at the

ONGERUP GOLF CLUB. Come and enjoy soon

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink I feel shame. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the vineyards and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this wine, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this wine and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver." ~ Jack Handy
