Despite being originally postponed from last October due to Covid19 restrictions in force, then due to poor weather in late March; the Golf Day was a great success due to the great work of many volunteers and organisers – especially Lindy Myers and Pauline Barnard. 

Pauline and Lindy -they look so relaxed!

"Hole in the Wall" track to Shelly Beach Manly

Image
 1 October 2020 Sue arranged that all met at the Old Manly Hospital site just outside St Paul's school A group of 7 and set off up Bluefish Drive then walked east along a mostly well-formed track in North Head Sanctuary. Very soon we saw wildflowers of various colours and species     We then saw the 9.2 inch gun emplacements and the tunnels that support them. The area was completed in 1938 and in 2017 the guns were moved to be housed in Puckpunyal in Victoria at yet to be built artillery museum. They fired shells weighing 2 tons and had a range of 27Km (that's the distance from North Head to Parramatta).  The" hole in the wall" We didn't hear any frogs at the pond but all enjoyed a great view of the ocean cliffs along the walk and the relaxed at the Boathouse at Shelly Beach. Thank you to Sue you alread hada a walk in these parts in September. The group photo to record the event.
