Golfers in support of SHINE

Tuesday 8 November saw a full course at the Remuera Golf Course for the second annual Brian Gibbes Memorial Golf Tournament by the Rotary Club of St Johns Inc.  Brian Gibbes was a past member of the club and passionate about golf and helping youth.  Therefore the memorial tournament was established to raise funds to then be applied to a scholarship in Brian's name for promising youth needing a helping hand up.


The day was fine and every person on the course had a thoroughly great time and a huge thanks go to the main organisers, Gary Key and Andy McCarrison who of course were ably assisted by many club members. But the main thanks goes to the main sponsor and the many corporate teams supporting this fantastic cause. 


The scholarship will be implemented in partnership with SHINE.  This year's tournament raised at least $18,000 and this will be added to the $20,000 from last year to provide a capital base from which the scholarship will be funded.
