Tasmanian Hospitality Review - December/January 2024

Clubs Tasmania

In addition to the more mundane tasks like emptying rubbish bins, keeping the sand boxes filled, painting tee markers and raking up course debris, “Dads Army” undertakes many projects that take into account the skills that each member brings to the group.

Co-ordinated by Paul Nation, a retired Fitter, the group recently undertook the rebuilding of a large garage that a member of the club had kindly donated to store excess equipment in. I’m sure it brought back memories of lost childhoods in mechano set building but just on a larger scale!! While it is a diverse group the one thing in common is their desire to help out around the club, no task is either too big or too small and they are there in all types of weather conditions. Dads Army even has its own morning tea roster with many of the group quite good at providing their own home baked fare (some like to bring it in purchased packaging). On some days it is like feeding time at the zoo!!

These skills range from the traditional trades like fitters and electricians through to office workers, store keepers and public servants – we even have a dentist and a former golf professional! The team also has former turf managers/greenkeepers who assist on many aspects of course maintenance including mowing of fairways and rough.
