We are delighted to announce that Stuart Munro has been awarded Life Membership of the Nedlands Golf Club, recognising his outstanding commitment and service to the club over nearly three decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celebrating Exceptional Service<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the recent AGM, Peter Boyne put forth the nomination for Stuart\u2019s life membership, highlighting the rarity and significance of this distinction. Since the club’s founding in 1933, only a small number of members have received this honour, with just two current life members prior to Stuart\u2019s appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peter remarked on the stringent criteria for life membership, stating, \u201cThe committee is very cognizant of the fact that the awarding of life membership is an extraordinary event. While there have been many people who have contributed to the success of this club, we are of the view that Stuart has been an outstanding member.\u201d He noted Stuart\u2019s impressive 27-year membership, six years of committee service\u2014including roles as House Director, Vice President, and President\u2014and his ongoing commitment as a regular player and dedicated volunteer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stuart\u2019s remarkable contribution as the volunteer group coordinator for 17 years was singled out for praise. Peter acknowledged the complexity and dedication required for this role, noting, \u201cHe has just been an absolute rock there and I would like to move that the membership vote that we admit Stuart as a life member of the club.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the support of the assembled members and no votes in opposition, Stuart\u2019s nomination was unanimously approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stuart\u2019s Gracious Response<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the announcement, Stuart expressed heartfelt gratitude for the honour:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThank you for those who proposed me. Thank you to the committee for this honour. When Fitzy was made a life member last year, I thought he would be the last person that I would live to see as a life member in this club, because we very rarely do it. I\u2019m stunned that you\u2019ve done me that honour and very grateful and thank you all for that vote of confidence in me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Stuart reminisced about his long history at Nedlands Golf Club, stretching back 70 years to his earliest golf lessons as a junior. He reflected on the joy and purpose the club has brought to his and his wife Susie\u2019s life, and paid tribute to fellow volunteer Peter Steward for his vital support:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWithout Peter Steward, I would never have been able to do half the work that I was able to complete\u2026Thinking of Peter tonight, I spoke to him today and I wish he could be here to share this with me tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He also thanked his wife Susie for her understanding and support over the years, concluding, \u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful privilege that you\u2019ve given me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations and Thanks<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stuart\u2019s tireless volunteer work, leadership, and genuine club spirit have left an enduring legacy at Nedlands. On behalf of all members, we congratulate Stuart Munro on his Life Membership. The club is richer for his passion, generosity, and friendship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
