Cottage by the Sea Flinders Golf Day 

February 19, 2026

Our annual Cottage by the Sea Flinders Golf Day took place at Flinders Golf Club. The exciting day included breakfast, golf, lunch, an auction and raffle, and raised more than $40,000 for our children's charity.  

The fundraising event celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2026 and was a fantastic day on the course. “The weather was exceptional and it was a great day for all. The event was sold out before Christmas last year and we received so much positive feedback,” shared Julie Raunik, Cottage by the Sea Golf Day Coordinator.

Cottage Camp Leader Ebony came to Cottage as a child on our programs and attended the Golf Day as a guest speaker to share her reflections on Cottage both as a past participant and current staff member.

We congratulate the 2026 champions, who received the “Counsel Harrison Perpetual Cup” from Cottage Ambassadors and Rippers members Phil de Fégely and Ian Cover OAM. The winner will be engraved onto the cup, which will be displayed at Cottage by the Sea. The new putting competition was another highlight of the day.

We thank everyone who played a part in the success of this fundraiser, including Cottage’s Golf Day Coordinator Julie Raunik, long-time supporters the Bulls & Bears group, Flinders Golf Day 2026 sponsors APS Benefits Ltd and Seaview Consulting, Flinders Golf Club and every golfer who enjoyed the day.
