Please make allowances for the
spectators on the course these days ... they can get a little
jumpy! And on the morning of July 27 there were other hazards on
the course ... a pea souper fog made it wise to stay on the
fairways if you wanted to find your ball! |

Gailes has now entered
into its 82nd year of association and continues to offer a Championship course
similar to the layout that held the Australian Open in 1955. It is a
course steeped in history and tradition and one that we’re sure the
majority of members are proud to be associated with. Where
else in Brisbane can you be a member of a Championship Golf Club and
play each and every Saturday, sometimes by just even turning up
without even booking a game? There are no membership ballots at
Gailes to play on a Saturday, nor is there a set waiting period that
you must endure before you get the ‘right’ to play on a Saturday. It
is an open Club and one that we continue to enjoy.

Happy New Year to all Gailes Golfers and

the fields at Gailes are still large.
