    Default 2006 Champs: Where/When (Oct 28/29, Pac H, Bribie Is)

    OK Guys. *Some decisions have been made on the where and when, otherwise we will be here forever.

    Unfortunately (for some), playing at Coolangatta Tweed Heads again is not doable, due to only being able to get a late tee time of 1pm on the Saturday.
    We needed to find courses that can accommodate 50 people on a Saturday arvo and a Sunday. *Even two courses on the one day won't work with the numbers we have.

    There's been plenty of real-time discussion in the chatroom today, and a few phone calls to golf clubs made by golfer69 (good work).
    After discussing the pros and cons of various options, here is the decision:

    Saturday, October 28, 12:00pm
    Pacific Harbour GC
    Booked for 50 people, playing off two tees
    $50 - Carts available at $15pp shared

    Sunday, October 29, 7:24-7:52
    Bribie Island GC
    Booked for 52 people, playing off two tees
    $20 - Maximum of 20 carts available at $17pp shared

    That's a maximum $87. *How good is that?

    We don't envisage that transport from the Brissy airport to Bribie will be a problem as there will be plenty of people travelling from the Gold Coast who will be able to pick people up. *


    We are currently looking into accommodation.

    i opted for the Bribie/Pacific harbour game.

    Love Bribie .. it's a great course. Pacific harbour looks to be a real beast too, so that would make for an interesting final round to the Champs.

    But unsure about the nude 20/20 game though

    jarro, Bribie would be the finishing course due to the restriction of the member's comp there on the Saturday.

    Food at the Bribie Golf Course is crap actually. They don't accommodate for large bookings either and close early.


    Fairways can do a better price. We stayed in a three bedder last year in August... and only paid 180 for two nights.

    Bugger I didn't look at the date, I thought it was still the 14th & 15th. The 28th/29th is the first 2 rounds of my Club Champs

    I'm back to Oz for a wedding on Oct 7th... Weekend of 14/15th is nice but 28 & 29th is asking for trouble.

    Maybe the year after then.

    sounds awesome to me - ic an of course accomodate guests at my place in Graceville if required.

    also, shouldn't be too difficult to get cheap places to stay around that area that time of year.
