Dear Secret Valley Golf Club Member,

It is that time of year again when we invite members to follow the tradition of the last two years by presenting a small wrapped Christmas present of your choice to be placed under the tree in the lounge.

All presents will be donated to Theoskepasti Special Needs Schools in Paphos and Limassol. Of course, any members who wish to assist Toma in the delivery of the presents are most welcome. I assure you, watching the joy and excitement displayed by the special needs children upon receiving their presents is priceless and a memory you will always treasure.

By way of clarification, our shareholders have elected not to extend their contract with Troon Golf effective 31^st December, 2021.

The practical impact for members will be minimal in that existing management structures will remain, going forward.

For those members who have not already met both Adam Collinson, our new Director of Golf and Joe Lines, our newly appointed addition to Golf Services staff, please feel free to introduce yourselves personally when next at SVGR. Both Adam and Joe are wonderful additions to our team and we are look forward to the many changes they will collectively bring to SVGR going forward.

As you may be aware, the Cyprus Government has recently introduced new protocols to further protect us all from the on – going effects of Covid-19.

Details of the updated protocols can be read on official government Covid-19 related web sites. Relevant signage as to those protocols are now also displayed in the golf shop.

In summary, we are legally obliged to ensure all members and guests provide golf shop staff a legally compliant electronic “Safe Pass”

Any member or guest unable or unwilling to provide such information will be refused the right to play golf, practice or enter our restaurant facilities to ensure we are legally compliant and of course, to ensure the safety of our staff, members and guests.

The Club AGM will be held at SVGR on Saturday 22nd January2022.

Details as to the agenda will be sent to you in the next few days, together with membership dues details for 2022.

For those members who are returning to visit loved ones in their home countries over the next few days, please travel safe and enjoy your visit home.

Stay safe and keep warm.                                                                                                                                                                                                                

Peter Copping
