    • Car Park
      • We are expecting work on resealing the carpark to begin in the first week of June, ie after Queen’s Birthday which is 1 June.  The contractor has advised that it may be possible to operate without entirely blocking off the area, so you may be able to park on the grass.  We will keep you posted.

    • Waikanae Women’s Golf – May 2009
      • If anyone watched the Irish Open this weekend, 16 17 May, you might have thought they were playing in a New Zealand winter. Well rugged up they were and it is good to know they sometimes have to play in weather like ours has been for the last month. The mid week Women’s Club have had the last 3 Wednesdays cancelled due to some atrocious weather conditions and weekend play has not been much better.
