Dungarvan Golf Triangle:
Golf tourism as we all know is now a big business in Ireland and the Dungarvan area is ideally placed to garner its share of this ever-expanding market. A major selling point of our three courses, Dungarvan Golf Club, Gold Coast Golf Club and ourselves West Waterford Golf Club is that we are all within 5 minutes drive of Dungarvan town center. The “Dungarvan Golf Triangle” effectively, allows you to purchase a ticket that enables you to play each of the three courses, Monday to Friday for the combined price of €75, and in this era of high green fee rates, this represents good value. ‘The Dungarvan Golf Triangle’ is being advertised through all the usual mediums and is on sale in each of the three golf clubs. Tickets are valid up to 31st December 2006.

Locker Allocation:
The locker fee for 2006 is €15 and should now be paid, any member wishing to forfeit hi/her locker is asked to inform the office so that vacant lockers may be made available for hire to members on the waiting list.

Timesheet Notice:
Please remember: Players with their names on the timesheet have priority on the 1st tee.
All members are also urged to telephone the office if they wish to cancel a tee time that they have booked in the interest of fairness to all.

Condolences:
Our sincere condolences from everyone at the Club go out to Colin Glasswell whose father Ted passed away on Saturday last.
