“Congratulations on what was a seemingly well managed afternoon. I was impressed with the marquee, the layout, the food and the presentations. I thought your personal approach to meeting and greeting VIP guests and sponsors at the main gate was a great initiative and then having Kath showing people then to their tables on arrival an excellent idea and all the Directors their on-course fulfilling their roles. It was good to meet Ken and get an insight into his passion for racing and for Goulburn. I thought your facilities and the grounds were well presented”

Can you please pass on our congratulations & thanks the Chairperson & Committee of the Goulburn Turf Club on the excellent initiative we experienced on Monday at the races with the inside area specifically allocated for Owners. Too often Race Clubs forget about visiting Owners, & on Monday the Goulburn Turf Club Committee made an extra effort to ensure this did not happen. The hospitality we experienced was very much appreciated & added to another fun day at the races for our Syndicate Members. Many thanks to all concerned.
