It comes after Mr Priestley warned members to use the club or lose it at an emergency meeting in February.

The club had to cut staff, including its head chef and manager because of a poor financial situation.

However, Mr Priestley said things were looking up for the club. 

“We had a very positive response from our members,” he said.

“Our functions are now going well and we are putting into place practices to keep the club going.

“At the moment it is business as usual.”

Mr Priestley said the situation created a lot of rumours about the club’s future.

“There was talk about the golf club being bought by an RACV club, which is so far from the truth,” he said.

“We are still continuing to operate, but he have just had to change the way we run the place.

“We have a very good chef and this month there is a number of functions booked in.

“We are also looking forward to getting people in for weddings.”

Mr Priestley said the financial issues were a result of a poor Christmas period.

“We had to respond to those issues,” he said.

At the emergency meeting, Mr Priestley asked members to pay their fees early and attend at least one function a month.

“The reaction from members was positive,” he said.

“We still have a good golfing program and we had a great autumn tournament.

“At the weekend we have a major fundraiser, where there will be 30-odd teams of four people out here golfing.

“It’s all looking rosy.”

Mr Priestley said Sunday brunch would continue at the club.

“The day offers an opportunity for members, visitors and guests to enjoy a lazy brunch followed by a round of golf,” he said.

Horsham Golf Club captain David Dickinson said the board and volunteers were putting in an enormous amount of work at the club to move forward and make the it successful and sustainable

“We’ve got some great people out there who continue to support the club,” he said.

“We’re always looking for more and for people in the community to get involved and to show they care about the place .

“The club is something Horsham should be really proud of.

“It’s in the community’s interests for the place to succeed.”
