CURLEWIS GOLF CLUB – November 22, 2018

ANOTHER cracking week of golf is wrapped up at Curlewis. Tuesday saw us privileged to host the Golf Victoria Primary Schools championship in the morning and the under 12 national state championships in the afternoon. Was great to have
seen some future stars try and tackle our golf course. Apart from the impressive golf on display, the golf course has been presented in great condition due to the fantastic work from Rob and his team on the ground staff. Some much needed rain around Melbourne Cup time has seen the course really green up and is fantastic condition.

It was also fantastic to see honorary member Deyen Lawson successfully attain his full European Tour after getting through gruelling tour school. The club is super proud of Deyen and wish him luck for next year.
