Dear member,

Clubhouse Completion Fund

Lead Donors Lead the Way

Thanks to the generosity of our first lead donors, the Clubhouse Completion Fund has received a mighty boost.

On behalf of the Committee and the Future Fund, we would like to sincerely thank Ray Quinlan, Marg and Mark Burrowes, and Cath and Roger Brown for being lead donors and for propelling our fundraising campaign forward in such a powerful way. Lead donors are individuals or families who commit to contributing $100,000 or more in gifts and/or pledges to the Clubhouse Completion Fund.

The early and enthusiastic support of Ray, Marg and Mark, and Cath and Roger for getting the Clubhouse renovation "done in one" sets a wonderful example, reflecting a deep sense of responsibility and commitment to the Club's future.

And in further good news, we can confirm that in recent days the Clubhouse Completion Fund has grown—through gifts and pledges from many members—to almost $700,000. This is an amazing achievement in such a short time, and we are immensely grateful to all those who have contributed so willingly. In the spirit of the generations who came before us, every gift demonstrates a desire to enhance the Club's facilities for both current and future members. Our thanks to you all.

We have a little under three weeks to the end of the financial year. Donations to the Clubhouse Completion Fund made via the Australian Sports Foundation are tax deductible. The donated funds will be invested and managed in an interest-accruing account by the Future Fund governors. 

Please help us achieve our goal of completing the Clubhouse renovation in one seamless phase. Let's club together and get this renovation "done in one"!

Barbara Inglis (President) and Amanda Derham (Chair, Future Fund)

"We stand by the DONE IN ONE clubhouse redevelopment project. Over the years Margaret and I have engaged with all that Barwon Heads has to offer and the golf club is central to the strong community spirit we cherish. We are delighted to support this once in a generation opportunity and look forward to the fun times and friendships in the wonderful 'old but new again' Clubhouse."  Marg and Mark Burrowes
"I believe for many good reasons we should do the project in ONE. It is time now for us to show some real support for our wonderful club."  Ray Quinlan
"There are three iconic drawcards to Barwon Heads: the Bluff, the Bridge and The Barwon Heads Golf Club. We have the chance to make our club even more iconic on the national and international golf scene by upgrading it to a standard that will be world class. In the interests of our members and their families and future generations by financing the whole renovation we will ensure a fantastic future for The Barwon Heads Golf Club. So proud to be a part of the club and its future. LET'S GET IT DONE IN ONE." Cath & Roger Brown
