Gary Thurgood won his 2nd Greenkeeper of the Year award at our recent Centenary
Celebration evening. Nominated for his greens at Lalor BC, Gary was in very good
company in the Final 5 which consisted of...
Warren Maynard
MCC Bowling Club
Adrian Marston
Middle Park Bowling Club
David Zitters
Williamstown Bowling Club
Scott Roberts
Sebastopol Bowling Club
Gary Thurgood
Lalor Bowling Club
Gary was presented the award by Life Member Len McKenzie. In his acceptance he
thanked the Association, praising the VGA for being able to make the 100 years, but
also for all the work people do behind the scenes, who don’t always get the
recognition they deserve. He spoke very highly about the trade and the boys he has
working for him.
To the other finalists, well done. It is a great achievement to not only be nominated
by your peers, but to then make it through to the Top 5.... a great acheivement.
