Golf club show of thanks for Simon Risson

Horsham Golf Club presented Horsham Rural City Council’s Citizen of the Year Simon Risson with a complimentary club membership to acknowledge his contribution to the community. 

Golf club manager Janene Coutts said this was a way of giving thanks to Mr Risson and the Horsham community. 

“Individuals like Simon are the strength and backbone of small communities,” she said. 

“As a club we would like to recognise the commitment that Simon has made to our community.”

“Over the past 18 months the Horsham Golf Club has been in a position where we have had to ask our local community for support, and we were overwhelmed by their immediate response of generosity and contribution. 

“These are the same attributes we acknowledge and respect in Simon, and as a club to be able to give something back to a community member who continually and selflessly gives himself to others is a small gesture of sincere appreciation of not only Simon’s efforts but a symbol of thank you to our local community as a whole.”
