Dear Friends
From one father to another. Happy Father’s Day. Its time we were spoilt – oh! doesn’t that happen every day?
Never mind on Sunday 20 June we will be extra specially spoilt. Perhaps as we will now officially be in winter you could cuddle up in bed until that coffee arrives and then take your family out to brunch or lunch. The restaurants need all the support they can get!

We have had a busy and exciting start to 2021. Our hollow tining of the golf course and subsequent rains have ensured that the course is getting back to its pristine condition. This bodes well for our upcoming Sunshine Tour event, that we have the honour of hosting from 8-14 March 2021, as well as our Men’s and Ladies Club Champs in the week thereafter.
SGM Meeting
We have an SGM scheduled at the end of March and are currently finalizing budgets for the upcoming financial year, so please look out for the Board communications and notice of this meeting.
New Development
Our renovations of the half-way house facility, golf shop and golf office are scheduled to start from early April – watch this space for updates on this exciting development! We are excited to get this upgrade going, as we know it adds value not only to all the golfers but also to residents and visitors of our beautiful estate.
Golf Membership Fees
A reminder that our new golf membership fees have been sent out and are on our website – www.dainfern.co.za/golf. Should they be paid in full before 31 March 2021, there is a 5% discount. Please contact Delia King on [email protected] who will gladly assist you.
Playparks and Recreational Facilities
We are very happy that our playparks and recreational facilities are now open, in line with new Government Covid-19 regulations and it is exciting to see children at play and using these areas. We remind you to always be considerate of others by wearing your mask and keeping your distance. View this month’s online Dainfern In Focus magazine publication:
In Focus your community magazine – Dainfern Nature Association February 2021
We wish all our Residents a very happy, healthy, and prosperous 2021! December and early January on the Estate was a peaceful yet busy one. With the lockdown restrictions it seemed many residents chow to stay at home and as a result the Clubhouse had a great festive season and we saw record rounds on the Golf course for the first time in many years. The summer thunderstorms certainly left their mark on the Estate and the river again brought tons of debris that left our maintenance teams with the massive task of cleaning and mopping up. We would really like to thank the team for their dedication during this festive season for working while we all took a break For those who already contribute to the Security Christmas fund, thank you, our Security team are incredibly grateful. There is still time to donate to the fund to show your appreciation for the Teams hard work and dedication to make this the safe Estate that it is. This pandemic as well as a lot of other things am out of our control and believe this has left a lot of us very frustrated and possibly angry. Some suggestions to possibly alleviate some of these stresses is to start making small changes in our lives. Small changes like spending time off social media especially before bedtime, eating healthy food, taking a walk at least once a day and increasing water consumption can be beneficial to our health especially during this pandemic. We certainly have some beautiful nature trails to walk and get a lithe distracted from our daily stresses and worries. View this month’s online Dainfern In Focus magazine publication:
