How lovely it was today to finally get out on the golf course. The course was in remarkable condition after all the wet weather and a huge Thankyou goes out to the grounds staff. As it was our annual Pink Lady team event the flags were pink and the sand refill bins were resplendent with a pretty flower. Again Thankyou for taking the trouble to make our day special.

We also celebrated our retired member, Betty Hall’s 100th Birthday. What a milestone and Betty joined us after our golf to enjoy catching up with everyone and of course to cut the cake.

We also held a raffle with the proceeds going to the Oncology Dept at the Tweed Hospital.Many thanks to everyone who supported this very worthy cause and we raised $325.

I would like to take space to thank my hard working committee for making this day such a wonderful success.
The event of the day was proudly sponsored in memory of Rosie Connolly – 12 months have flown by since we lost her. Liz Edwards and sister Jane donated all prizes and these were greatfully received by lots of winners.

Winners of the Pink Ball game held in conjunction with the team event were : Alison Blair, Marlene Wyatt Coral Rasmussen and Privanda Hawley 38pts.

All players, except the winners of the NARGA award, received $5 on their card.

The course is recovering beautifully from all the rain and it is a great credit to the green keepers who have worked so hard to get it back to top condition. The greens were fast and true.
