GMAQ AGM & Sponsors Golf Day @ Redland Bay GC

Yesterday, many managers and board members converged on the Redland Bay Golf Club for the 2012 GMAQ AGM and Sponsors Golf Day. It was a wonderful turnout where all enjoyed great food, service golf and even an additional act from comedian Damien Power over a sensational 3 course dinner.

The attendees played an Irish Teams Stableford and there were some impressive scores, none better than the winning team consisting of Andrew Kirkman (GM - Royal Queensland GC), Gordon Gower (GM - Burleigh GC), Des Knight (Royal Qld GC) & David Downey (Burleigh GC) who beat the team from Bribie Island GC & Inside Golf Magazine.

The AGM was conducted earlier in the day with no real surprises coming from the meeting. Unfortunately, Andrew Kirkam has stood down from the position of GMAQ Captain after serving in this role for 6 years. Thanks very much for your contribution to our association over this period Andrew. Cameron Harvey from the Pacific Golf Club has now joined the executive committee of GMAQ and Aaron Muirhead from Redland Bay Golf Club has accepted the position of Captain of GMAQ.

The GMAQ Executive Committee consists of:

  • President - Simon Parker (Brisbane Golf Club)
  • Captain - Aaron Muirhead (Redland Bay Golf Club)
  • Secretary/Treasurer - Steve Middleton (Bribie Island Golf Club)
  • Committee - Sharon Purnell (Mt Coolum Golf Club)
  • Committee - Brett Holland (Surfers Paradise Golf Club)
  • Committee - Cameron Harvey (Pacific Golf Club)
