On the 26th of January 24 players joined the anniversary golf at Palm Hills.The prizes were given at the party the next day, but there were cold towels between the first and last 9 holes and a few cold beers after the game.
The next day the 10th Anniversary PAR-TEE was a huge success with 60 Members, past Members and guests in attendance. Special guests included representatives from Springfield and Palm Hills Golf Courses with their generous donation of prizes awarded during the night appreciated by all.  The party started at 6.30, but many were already seated before that time. There were welcome drinks, a mouth watering buffet, a golf quiz (won by the team Palm Hills / Springfield), a tees guessing game (Ellen Schilling guessed only 3 tees of the total of 395 tees) and a golf holding competition (Vee was the winner  for the Ladies with 11 golf balls and Steinar was able to hold 16 golfballs in one hand!
Peter Fitzpatrick was so friendly to donate golfclubs that could be auxioned and in total 5,750 Baht was collected to support both the Straydogs Cha-Am and The Ban Bangket school playground.

After a nice (free) breakfast at Palm Hills the AGM was opened by the president. There were 21 of the 50 current members present at the 2018 AGM. The 2019 AGM will be held in (early) february, because the newly adopted constitution is based on a new timeframe that combines better with the Cha-Am golf season. This new constitution was unanimously adopted at this AGM and it's complete text can be found on this website or by clicking here. 
After a two year term our president, Hans Ewalts was up for election and was reappointed in the absence of any other nominations. The general discussion included stableford vs. strokeplay, the handicap policy of the club and upcoming new "rules of golf". After the AGM there was a round of golf; Roger Glass and Inger Brett Vingelt were the winners.

On 12 December, the treasurer of Cha-Am Golfclub paid a visit to Straydogs Cha-Am and made the first periodic payment on behalf of Cha-Am Golf Club. On 11 and 12 December a total of 44 dogs (41 females and 3 males) were sprayd and neutered. These dogs have been taken from the beach area, Cha-Am temple and the old center of Cha-Am, and were snipped, vaccinated (rabiës too), freed of parasites as worms and ticks and flees, and returned back to their packs. Sick dogs will stay in the clinic for treatment.
This was already the 25th spray and neuterround. Female dogs are given priority in treatment, because they are the ones who bring new puppies into the world and male dogs are also more territorial and therefore allow new males to enter their habitat less quickly. Because of limited financing, choices have to be made.
If members of the Cha-Am Golf Club have issues with dogs in their residential area, they can indicate this to the Management Committee. Straydogs Cha-Am will then consider whether they can offer a solution in a subsequent spray an neuterround.
