Caroline Bon from Northland successfully defended her title winning the KFC Grilled 2011 NZPWG Anita Boon Pro-Am at North Shore Golf Club. A final round of 1 over par 73 on the testing red course at North Shore sealed her win one shot ahead of NZPWG Board member Susan Farron. Bon took home the $3,700 winners cheque which will help towards getting her to Ladies European Tour School in January. Australian Vicky Thomas slipped back to third position after a second round of 78. Despite not being able to fly the Australian flag Thomas was very positive about the event and is keen to bring even more Australians to the event next year. The day was a success with nine professionals taking home a pay cheque and with a large amount of money having been raised for the NZ Gynaecological Cancer Foundation (exact amount yet to be released). The winning amateur team went to Pam Greenhalgh's team of Roy Montieth, Helen Chegwin and Malcolm Cooper with a combined stableford total of 90. The North Harbour Golf Assocation board members proudly flew the flag - fitting winners given that Anita Boon was a North Harbour representative golfer for many years.

Dear all,
We would like to share with you a one page summary of our achievements in 2010 (please find attached). We are very proud of our results, particularly with a part time work force and a voluntary board. We are certain that these activities have had an impact on the awareness of gynaecological cancers in NZ.
We would like to thank our main sponsors for their generous support. Without you we would cease to exist. Ø CSL Biotherapies Ø Sky City Community Trust Ø Manchester Trust Ø NZ Lotteries Commission Ø DLA Phillips Fox Ø Pub Charity Ø NZ Professional Women’s Golfers Charitable Trust
Due to difficulties sourcing funding for our operational costs for 2011 we will unfortunately need to reduce our activities, however we have done a lot of the hard work this year with the rebrand and generation of materials. We aim to focus predominantly on awareness raising activities in 2011. However, if any trust, person, organization is able to support the NZGCF with funds towards our operational costs we would be most appreciative. This has been an ongoing battle and without this much needed resource we will struggle to continue doing our good work.
We have important messages to share with the women in NZ, these messages may well save a life!
Finally I would like to take this opportunity to thank the board, Giselle, Andrea & Dr Ai Ling Tan, our ambassadors Fi & Beth, administrator Helen and the volunteers, particularly Nicola & Jan. Your hundreds of free hours, determination, commitment and enthusiasm have been truly amazing.
Once again, thank you for your support, and we look forward to communicating again in 2011.
Wishing you safe and happy travels over the Christmas period.
Warmest regards Sarah Sarah Hutchings RNComp, RM, BHSc, MA General Manager New Zealand Gynaecological Cancer Foundation
