An Australia Day Ambrose To Remember!

January 21, 2025

Come one, come all to another fantastic Australia Day Ambrose event as hosted by the Cardwell Golf Club on Sunday the 26th of January!

A monthly attraction, the Cardwell Golf Club’s regular Ambrose events continue to provide attendees with a wonderful day of both socialisation and sport on the green, however, this Sunday’s spectacular will be one of the biggest days on record!

With the help and support of fellow Cardwell Golf Club members, Coleen Mikkelsen has been busily organising the Australia Day Ambrose, ensuring all the t’s are crossed and i’s are dotted ahead of the event.

“Monthly it’s a big day, but this event is a BIG one,” explained Coleen.

“This has been my first Ambrose that I have taken on from previous organisers, and I’m only a new girl at this game but I’m right into it - it’s a lot of teamwork which is good, and many people like to put their hand up to help.”

With less than a week to go until the event, energy levels are certainly high in anticipation of the competition with teams having travelled from Atherton, Mission Beach, Ingham, and Tully to have a swing.

“We have really awesome sponsors, and raffles, and this event will have the best-dressed buggy competition, which will be a little bit different for a bit of fun,” Coleen added.

“I’m absolutely looking forward to the day!”

18 teams comprising of four people each will take to the green for the nine-hole competition teeing off at 10:30am on Sunday morning. Players of all abilities are welcome to register, and with only a few team spots left, golfers interested in being part of Sunday’s event are strongly encouraged to call or email Coleen on 0411 509 630 or onel11@bigpond.com to secure their registration.
