Om met die geldinsamelingsproses te help het die klub onlangs sy 28ste gholfdag gehou waaraan 70 spelers deelgeneem het.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Ons het R15,000 wins gemaak, maar kort nog baie geld. Die opgradering gaan dus nie oornag plaasvind nie,&#8221; s\u00ea die president, Beatrix Smith. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>En wanneer die korrekte bedrag gereed is kan dit drie tot vier weke neem om die proses te voltooi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die Laerskool Susannah Fourie het intussen tot die klub se redding gekom en hulle bane aangebied. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Ons is uiters dankbaar teenoor Susannah Fourie om ons daar te verwelkom. Hulle het ook by hulle binnebaan ligte aangebring wat dit vir ons baie aangenaam maak,&#8221; s\u00ea Erica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dit kan aanvaar word dat die bane met groot makietie ingewy sal word wanneer dit voltooi is.
