Volunteer Spotlight: Gavin & Liz Greenfield from Gore

For Gavin his favourite memory is the day he promised Dimitrios Papadatos a ride home after the tournament if he won and the very jubilant people he took home late that night was unforgettable.

“My best memory would be being able to play golf with our son and Grandson at Millbrook and also having Breakfast at The Hills Club House before our complimentary round at The Hills with our Granddaughter and Grandson as caddies for the day.”

Gavin and I have volunteered at the event at the Hills every year since it came to the Queenstown area.  We have family living in Arrowtown and are so grateful to them for their hospitality.  We couldn’t be involved without them.  We also have family living in Dunedin and the Wanaka area. This year we celebrated our Golden Wedding anniversary.

With the Open being held so close to home it was an opportunity not to be missed.

I have driven shuttles every year and some of the drives include the Queenstown, Hilton, routes, the 9th Green and 10th Hole shuttles, and between The Hills and Millbrook and I’ve also been a roving Marshall.  For Gavin the walker scorer role would be his best job until the course became too long and so now shuttle driver it is for him.

The Players and Officials we have transported are all so grateful to the volunteers for being there for them.

Just an amazing experience overall.
