Hi All,

Today the newly formed committee met for the first time and rather efficiently dealt with business!

Thank you everyone who has renewed their subscription this year.

Golf Croquet  communication

Golf Croquet players had  agreed  a communication strategy that is acceptable to all players and that the system and communication must be inclusive to ensure all players are involved and contacted.

Contacts  will be set up in   WhatsApp that will provide for:

• The scheduling of games across a playing day; and
• Allow members to arrange play outside scheduled playing days.
• Advise everyone of potential to get together to discuss new initiatives.

Lawns

New hoop holes will be measured out and recut on Monday 19^th /Tuesday 20^th

Please be very careful with correct hoop placement to ensure the holes are not stretched.

Mowing will take place at lunch time on Thursday 28^th July and Thursday 5^th September prior to the Association Tournament ( 29^th July – 1^st September and 6^th – 8^th September)

Governing Body VCA

VCA invites  interested members to assist with a review of the constitution and  also volunteers  to assist with the development  of a set of measurable parameters to assess the ongoing viability of VCC/Cairnlea

The region is collecting  thoughts on what a contemporary constitution should address to ensure that members rights are protected.
