Advance weather forecast here
Please double check the table in post#1 to make sure your accomm and golf details are right.
Thur, Fri, Sun accomm: andigolds Park View Hotel on St Kilda Rd. He's supplied us the very generous rate of $62.50 per person twin share, with option for people to room up as 4's for below $50 a head. An absolute steal to be so cheap so close to the CBD. No prepayment required, one person in each room to put up a credit card on check in & then just pay on checkout. 10 days before for final numbers is enough notice.
Sat accomm: Here. 15 people officially booked in for Sat accomm. $70 a head.
Fri golf: Southern GC. $60, carts are an extra $45, pull carts $5 hire. We have the last 5 groups booked from approximately 12:30 onwards. Should give interstaters arriving that morning a bit of time to get to the hotel, or straight to the club and have a quick meal or drink. Daylight no issue for any of these times as Daylight savings will be in full swing.
Sat golf: 6 tee times, 12:00PM onwards at St Andrews Beach. Cost will be $85 & includes cart or $69-50 without. Please note if you decide prior you don't want a cart but then want one on the day they will be $40.
Sun golf: Confirmed, 5 slots, 9:20AM to 10AM at Moonah Links Legends Course. Cost of $95 & includes cart.
Mon golf: Spring Valley GC - 7:56AM hitoff. Cost of $82.50, no cart.
So, a total of $200 for golf on Saturday & Sunday, with $20 going towards prizes. Or if you wish, please pay the full $342.50 for all four rounds golf, or the full payment for whatever rounds you are playing + $20 for prizes. Full payment preferred but instalments OK too. Final payment by 22nd Jan 2013.
Meals / activities:
Thurs night: Had in Lime restaurant @ Parkview Hotel. Chicken was magnificent but the Lamb Wellington is still my choice here.
Fri night: BBQ and salad had. Some regurgitated. Andy has provided a conference room for "activities". They will be good fun and include the all important BYO alcohol (which some should steer clear of next year!).
Sat night: BBQ at St Andrews Beach Golf Club. Drinks must be purchased from the club but we can bring whatever else we like. FG can get hold of some meat (stop sniggering you lot!) and salads. Need to know final numbers a week or so before. Probably around $10 a head to cover costs.
Sun night: Was the awesome idea of Chinatown with beers @ Young & Jacksons hotel.

OK, Friday golf, lets get a bit of brainstorming going on here...
Eastern GC - probably around $50-$60 green fees, a 30ish minute drive and a nice course. Bit on the hilly side though. Difficulty rating 6.5/10
Settlers Run - Around $60 green fees, 50 minutes drive. Reports are its a nice course, haven't played it myself. Similar style to Sat / Sun courses.
Albert Park - cheap as they come and unfortunately I believe the course reflects it. 5 minutes walk. Difficulty rating probably 3 / 10.
Sandringham - one of the better "truly public tracks" on the sandbelt. Probably around $40 green fees and 20 minutes drive. Difficulty rating 5 / 10 and the Redcliffe equivalent of all of them if I had to pick one.
Growling Frog - $40 green fees and from all reports a good track. 50 minutes drive and looks the same style course as Sat / Sun. Probable difficulty rating 6 or 7/10.
Devilbend - $25 green fees and looks a nice track. Over an hours drive though. Likely difficulty rating 5 or 6 / 10
Yarra Bend - around $30 green fees and 20 minutes drive. Ok track, not much more you can say about it though. Probably a Redcliffe equivalent but a little easier. Difficulty rating 4 / 10.
Yering Meadows - $55 green fees and a nice track. Again though, similar style to Sat / Sun courses. Difficulty rating 6.5 / 10.
Southern GC - Considering its been 14 years since I played it I can't really remember that much about it, but I do believe it's a nice track. Green fees of probably around $75 and a 35 minute drive. Difficulty rating 6 / 10.
Kingswood GC - I have reciprocal rights there so MAY be able to get us on. 35 minutes drive, $75ish green fees and a very nice track. Difficulty rating 6.5 or 7 / 10 depending on firmness of greens.
For reference to anyone who's played QLD champs I'm rating Pelican as an 8 in difficulty in this years conditions.
Any other suggestions?

Even though I'm not playing on the Friday I think Southern would be a good option. Quite different from the other courses you are playing.

I'm leaning towards this way too if we can get on there. Nice course, maybe a shade on the expensive side at $75 (maybe we could get Dennis to "introduce" us for $60) but a good quality course thats not a LONG drive and still on the sandbelt for the interstaters.
But I'll see if anyone else comes up with anything...

Weird formatting issue with the table. Fixed now.
Would be pretty shitty to organise it and not stay with you all, wouldn't it?

OK, the Avalon Air show is the next week. I'll be there for that.
I may have the chance to come over and work the week before meaning I could be a chance for this.
Lots of water under the bridge yet, but I'll know more before the end of the year.
Why exactly do I need to answer to you?

I'm happy to be in a room that shares 4 too, if that works out with others. After all, it's just a spot to rest the head.

Well we would still appreciate your input. As a visitor would you prefer 2 sandbelt tracks and 2 links style courses or a sandbelt track and 3 links style?
