What's been happening at the Oberon Golf Club

May 9, 2024

It's been a big couple of weeks at the Oberon Golf Club, and not just because the town's golfers have been enjoying the views.

Can Assist Charity Golf Day

On April 28, the Club conducted its first Can Assist Charity Golf Day. Can Assist seems to be Oberon's favourite charity, with the Junior Rugby League's annual auction also benefitting the organisation.

This was the Club's first attempt at a benefit day and raised $7,000 for this very deserving charity, where all of the money raised is used to support local residents. You can read more about Can Assist here.
