We all had a fabulous day in great weather. Our partners over the series were Mark & Anne Stimpson & they were great company as usual. The course is playing really well as you can tell by the scores and it is going to get better in coming weeks with it being in the best condition that many of us can remember for quite a long time. The Club Championships, Club Mixed Foursomes and the Pro Am are upcoming events in the next few weeks and I expect that our course will be in peak condition for that.
Congratulations to all the winners today and to everyone that took part in this event.
Special thanks and appreciation must go to Maggie Minjoy and Di Beechey for their dedication in administrating & recording the results for this event as it is a very time consuming & demanding
responsibility. THANKS MAGGIE & DI!
