Our congratulations to those players. We thank the retiring Executive members, Kerry Prodehl, Margrit Korsten and Laetitia Blom for all the wonderful service to Boland Ladies Golf. This report brings to a close, my 2 year terms as Secretary on the Executive. My involvement with Boland golf has been a wonderful and rewarding experience and I thank my fellow Executives and the management and Lady Captains of all of our Clubs for their support and assistance over this period. I would like to make special mention of our President, Charmaine Fagyas, for her amazing support, particularly in the last half of this year, when full time employment made it difficult for me to maintain my responsibilities as Secretary. I am extremely happy that the Executive have managed to maintain the financial strength of the Union during this second year of my term and I wish the incoming Executive all the very best in the coming year. Finally, I wish you all a wonderful Christmas and everything of the best in. Kerry Prodehl HON SECRETARY 6
