The Club’s annual Foundation Day held on Friday, 17th August 2012 has been heralded a huge success, with over $20,000 in profits going direct to the Junior Foundation, aiding the Junior Development Program at Glenelg Golf Club.
The presence of Craig Parry created a buzz around Glenelg, with Club member and major sponsor Troy Perriam of One Solution Mobile & Data and his guests tackling our challenging layout with the Australian golfing legend. Craig made many positive comments about the course but made particular mention on the depth and structure of our Junior Development Program.
Our guests were greeted by a Sausage Sizzle before a 12:00pm Shotgun Start with the team from the Watermark Glenelg taking out the Team Ambrose event making a phenomenal 11 birdies for the day. Dinner commenced at 5:00pm with two-time Bradman Medalist Ben Hook hosting the evening. An interview with Craig Parry had the 164 guests enthralled with some interesting comments on close friend Tiger Woods and an honest examination of Greg Norman’s contribution to Australian Golf.
It is not without sponsors, donors and volunteers that days like this can be held, with a particular thank you to Troy Perriam and George Papas, making a significant contribution as the Major Partner of our 2012 Foundation Day. We ask members to support the sponsors of these events as they have supported the Club.
