We are making our way through the winter months, so with the shortest day behind us it feels<br />

like we have turned the corner. There is lots of new activity and events coming in <strong>July</strong> and<br />

beyond to look forward to.<br />

Whitford’s café has some winter warmers on for <strong>July</strong>, “Coffee and a Muffin $6.50 Monday to<br />

Friday between 11am – 12 midday” and “Soup and a Toasty $10.50 Monday to Friday between<br />

11am – 4.30pm”. These deals are great value so we hope you will enjoy them.<br />

Wednesday’s will see the return of “Crack the Code” between 6 and 7pm. Up to $1000 to be<br />

won if you can guess the six digit code to the safe. Thirsty Thursdays also commences in the<br />

first week of <strong>July</strong> with drinks deals on Super Jugs and our house wine.<br />

The “Members draws” will have a slight change in format in that the draw will take place anytime<br />

between 6 and 6.45pm on Wednesday and Friday. Happy Hour moves to a Saturday<br />

between 3.30 – 4.30pm.<br />

As well as the new “Winter Menu”, <strong>July</strong> will see the restaurant opening for Sunday lunch with a<br />

2 course deal of $25 for a roast meal and dessert. Treat yourself and the family and come down<br />

to enjoy a hearty roast meal at Whitford’s between 12 and 2pm each Sunday.<br />

The annual mid-winter dance is on in the Sports Hall on Saturday 9 th <strong>July</strong>. $2 on the door, doors<br />

open from 7pm with Robbie Drew and Sharon starting from 8pm.<br />

Look out for dinner theatre at its best with “Faulty Towers – A night of mayhem” arriving on<br />

Saturday 27th August at 7pm. This show is an absolute hoot, so make sure you don’t miss out.<br />

Tickets are $60 for a three course meal and show. Doors open from 6.30pm. Tickets are on sale<br />

now at the club reception.<br />

So no reason to be at home when there is so much on right here. Look forward to seeing you<br />

all, around the Club.<br />

Regards, Tim.


Garden Section<br />

<strong>July</strong> has the coldest weather for the year with frosts striking most gardens.<br />

The Garden Section has donated to the club a plaque and floral arrangement.<br />

The floral arrangement was designed by Joy Stokes’ niece, Debra Kinnaird.<br />

We had our prize giving at our AGM, Caroline Kellaway presented<br />

the awards & prizes. We also had a beautiful meal at Whitford’s<br />

enjoyed by all. <strong>July</strong> 20 th - guest speaker Betta Plants Nursery<br />

Quoits Section<br />

The Quoits season has finished for winter and we will start up again in September.<br />

We had our AGM at the Club on 28th May, followed by prizegiving and a lovely lunch in the<br />

Whitford’s Restaurant.<br />

The Election of Officers resulted in the positions staying the same. We had a good turn out<br />

for the meeting with 20 people, and we were also pleased to welcome Caroline Kellaway.<br />

There were a lot of trophies played for this season within our section, as well as games<br />

played against Richmond and Ashburton.<br />

The ultimate trophies to win are the Men and Ladies Champion of Champions, these were<br />

Sharon, Tony and Liz.<br />

It was said many times at<br />

the meeting that we all<br />

get along so well and<br />

have lots of fun at games<br />

and whenever we get<br />

together, which is very<br />

nice to hear.<br />

We will give plenty of<br />

notice for our Open Day<br />

in September if anyone<br />

would like to come along<br />

and join in the fun.


Golf Section<br />

The Woolston Golf Section had their monthly game at Avondale on Sunday<br />

12th June. The day was very cold, in fact it felt like 5 degrees!<br />

We had 13 players turn up to play for the Ivor Young Trophy and for a<br />

Stapleford game. The Ivor Young is drawn 4’s. The winning team consisted of<br />

John Parkin, Cedrick Armstrong, Craig Bain and Kevin O’Brien.<br />

The Stapleford was taken out by Diane Ritchie with 37 points. Craig Bain<br />

came 2nd and Mick Duggan 3rd. Our next game is on Sunday 10th <strong>July</strong> at<br />

Kaiapoi.<br />

Kara Campbell has been very busy seeking sponsors for the Ladies Chartered<br />

Club Comp, which is to be held at Avondale on Labour weekend. With the<br />

help of others it should be a very successful weekend. Prize giving will be<br />

held at the Woolston Club. We will keep everyone informed of our progress<br />

and of the itinerary for the weekend.<br />

The Card Section<br />

The season is a long one with nearly 50 of our Sundays being taken up<br />

playing tournaments! Most of the tournaments are played in Canterbury<br />

clubs but there are also New Zealand and South Island Championships<br />

played throughout New Zealand.<br />

We are half way through our Saturday Inter-Club against the Canterbury<br />

clubs and so far we haven't lost a game. With 14 weeks left lets hope the<br />

luck holds. We’ve also had some good luck in our Sunday tournaments,<br />

with our players winning some and always finishing near the top.<br />

We play Euchre on a Tuesday evening, and on the weekends we play Euchre<br />

and Crib 500.<br />

The Inter-Club team is made up of 26 players consisting of 8 crib and 18<br />

Euchre so with such a large team and many players away some weekends<br />

for various reasons we have to call on up to 40 members to fill the vacancies.<br />

Like most games it’s very competitive but we have a lot of fun at the<br />

same time.<br />

Avondale Golf Course, Christchurch


Billiards & Snooker Section<br />

Since the refurbishment the new billiards and snooker room can now hold 8<br />

competition standard tables, which is really working well for the club. The<br />

Canterbury Billiards and Snooker Association are now using the Woolston<br />

Club as their home base. The only thing left to do is to look at getting the<br />

glass doors fitted with double glazing, to try and reduce the sound from the<br />

Kellaway Bar. We’ve also just installed a heat pump which will stop the tables<br />

from getting damp.<br />

So far this year we’ve had about 15 tournaments on the weekend’s and 14<br />

weeks of Inter-Club Billiards played on Monday and Wednesday nights. Plus<br />

we’ve had players coming in through the week to practice.<br />

There are still about 20 weeks of weekend tournaments to go to this year,<br />

plus 15 rounds of Inter-Club snooker to played on Wednesday nights.<br />

The Woolston Club players have performed really well at the top of the<br />

championships and the Inter-Club Div 1 Billiards team finished 2nd and 3rd in<br />

the Monday competition. We look forward to what the future brings.
