A series of upgrades have recently been undertaken by the Club specifically to the rear of the Clubhouse.  The back landing was given a facelift last month, as well as some additional branding for the Club.  At the time of writing this Snapshot, the final touches of the rear compound, including the staff access point and waste area were being enclosed to provide a consistent appearance.

Club Update – COVID-19

Club Update – COVID-19

Members will notice that there are a number of different avenues for registering their attendance whilst at the Club, the easiest of which is the QR Scan code located in the Club Bar.  It is vital that all members and guests entering the bar register via either the physical paper version or the QR Scan option.  For assistance using the QR Scan code, please see administration staff.

——————————–

Mindful of the recent events that have transpired in Brisbane over the last 48 hours, it was considered timely to remind members of the importance of adhering to the current rules and regulations relating to COVID-19.  First and foremost, Members should be commended on the manner in which they have conducted themselves over the last few months.  However, the importance of remaining diligent has again been highlighted. 

The Club would ask that Members ensure they are practising social distancing, washing their hands thoroughly and regularly, sanitising their hands frequently, using Non-Cash payments as often as possible and above all if you feel unwell, stay at home.  The registries located in the Club Bar must be completed in full – this includes date, name, email, mobile and time in/out.  Alternatively, members can use the QSCAN option on their smartphone – for assistance with this method, please see the staff.

Communication from Clubs Queensland (Club Industry Body) overnight noted changes to the Queensland CLUB COVID – SAFE PLAN.  The main changes include, patrons MUST take a seat when drinking and eating in the Club bar; ensure patrons do not move around the venue unnecessarily and that patrons from different groups do not mingle. It also included that should any member have travelled to what is considered a ‘COVID hot spot’ they do not attend the venue – click here to view list of ‘COVID Hot Spots’.  It also stressed the importance of continuing the below practices:

  • Social distancing continues,
  • Increasing patron awareness of their role in social distancing and following directives of staff such as ensuring they return to their seat if drinking/eating.
  • Discouraging any gathering of groups wishing to stand in close contact and not practice social distancing.
  • The need to ensure the accurate gathering of information for contact tracing purposes. This continues to be an area of compliance that needs to improve based on feedback from OLGR and their activities over the weekend.

While the Club has put in place the necessary changes as directed by the Queensland Government to both its Golfing and Hospitality Operations, it is ultimately the Members who will determine whether we as a Club are compliant (and do not get fined).  As previously mentioned, the Club is thankful for the adopted behaviour by members thus far and encourages them to continue in this manner.

Keep up the good work.
