2023 Women’s Charity Day
Published on 9th June 2023 in Club, Guests News, Members NewsThe Women’s Charity Day has been a regular feature in the golf calendar for a great many years and is well supported by not only our members, but visitors from other Clubs who enjoy participating in the day. Each year our mid-week women nominate a charity to raise funds for and this year, Zonta House was the chosen recipient.
A strong field of 120 women braved what was a rather wet day to participate in the day and spirits were high, in spite of the inclement weather! The major focus on the day though was not on golf, but on outbidding one another in the ever popular silent auction, buying the best of the cake stall, the wine raffle, sock stand and of course the beautiful craftwork of the ladies from Threads of Change who donated an enormous amount of hand knitted items to the day.
Fundraising continued throughout the lunch with competitive games of heads and tails and an auction to sell of the beautifully hand made table centrepieces.
The efforts of the Club’s Charity Day subcommittee in putting the day together was something to be proud of and the fundraising result achieved on the day certainly ensured the efforts paid off.
An outstanding donation of $16,726 will be donated to Zonta House as a result of Charity Day 2023.
An enormous vote of thanks goes to our organizing Committee, those who played in the day and of course, all those who donated products and time to make the event such a success!
