CSB - James Beston - Whangamata Golf Club GM

A provincial Kiwi golf club seeking to raise funds to rebuild its on-course flood-protection infrastructure has taken the meat pack raffle concept to a whole new international level… ending up with a prize at one of the sport’s pinnacle events.

While many New Zealand golf club raffles offer up tempting prizes such as golf bags, bottles of wine, golf trundlers, and food hampers, Whangamata Golf Club in the Coromandel is running a raffle with the top lure of a luxury travel package to watch the famed Masters championship at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, USA.
