We were so lucky with the weather, a lovely warm and sunny day.  36 Ladies took part in our first major competition of the season.

Our Ladies President Kath organised the prize table consisting of an array of Tubs and Baskets filled with lovely spring plants supplied by Hollybeck Nursery, who never let us down.

Special thanks go to Susan Harding and Mary Smith who served up refreshments in the half way house and thanks must go to all our ladies who supplied the fantastic cakes etc.

Thanks also to the Committee for all their hard work and organisation and to the Greenstaff for preparing the Course, slight misunderstanding with the Putting but 12 holes are better than none!!!  Standard Scratch for the day was 72.

Special thanks must also go to Linda Fearn for the lovely flower decorations on the tables and in the Ladies Locker Room.

All ladies who played sat down to a  very enjoyable meal and thanks go to Les, Rob and his staff for the preparation and serving.
