Following
December’s committee meeting I wish to send the members an update from
the committee in relation to end of year activity. Firstly may we take
this opportunity to wish all our members and everyone associated with
the club a very happy and peaceful Christmas. We would also like to
remember absent friends and indeed members with health issues who are no
longer able to compete on the golf course.
Our job is to work on behalf of the members and to make our Butter Mountain Golf Club experience a very positive one.
Some Notices for upcoming events include.
3 Man end of year scramble on Dec 28th
3 man beginning of year scramble on January 4th
Please note golfers may avail of placing everywhere and indeed the save the fairway option
Some reflections on last year include
There was a great spread of prizes amongst many members
Very Successful days on both Captains & Presidents day
Internal Club match play competitions ran very smoothly
BMGC
entered our largest volume of teams ever in inter club competition.
Some fine scalps were had including the K club and congratulations to
everybody who represented the club
Undoubtedly the most successful
team were our Super Seniors who were pipped at the post and were
tremendous representatives of the club.
Inter Club competitions 2025
The club are already committed to entering 4 teams this year including
The Barton Cup
Pierce Purcell Shield
The Leinster Fourball
The Super Seniors
Facility Improvements
We have all witnessed the various course improvements over the last two years and there are more plans for 2025
You
can see the improvements to the new dining room in the club house which
is nearing completion. Works have included, new flooring, dining room
and reception all fully painted, new windows and doors installed, new
lighting & new radiators. Golfers are asked Kindly not to wear their
golf shoes in the new dining room. We are excited to have the room
completed soon for everyone to enjoy in 2025.
The Driving net is going to be replaced and relocated to a new location in 2025
There are plans for a putting Green in 2025 behind the car park wall
The Gazebo currently situated on the 13th will be moved as requested up to the bench on the 16th tee box when weather permits
Membership 2025
The rates have been set this year with a flexible payment plan if required @
€700 for full Membership
€575 for 5 Day Membership
€460 for Under25
The
course have requested that Membership Fees for 2025 are to be paid
within the agreed timeframe please. Failure to pay the fees as agreed,
can have a knock on effect and can disrupt players on accessing our
Booking Platforms & selecting tee times.
The committee
believe the above package represents great value and I have often
considered what if every member knew 1 potential golfer who you could
encourage to join? It would make a huge difference to our membership.
Why not give it a go.
I hope we have whetted the appetite for next year and am hoping that all members will return in 2025.
In the meantime, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all the committee and we look forward to competing in 2025
Keeping you informed
David O’ Driscoll
Committee Member.
