Conclusion:<\/strong> The Forbes WOG is the NSWVGA\u2019s longest running week of golf and for most of this time Beryl & Lynnie Roberts have been at the helm. Lynnie had a knee replacement in the week leading up to play and was homebound with Beryl back and forwards checking on his needs. However, with an excellent supporting committee it was smooth sailing all week and another wonderful tournament. (Past VP Richard Doyle celebrated his 80th birthday during the week and was joined by his family for surprise celebrations).<\/p>\n
