I am still to get the official results from the Pandora Charity Day - however some of the snippets are - Winner of the Men's - Ian Dicks; on the 14th hole our defacto driver hit a hole-in-one for the lucky player that he represented. More information to come on that very successful day.
Images attached: With my playing partners today - Yvonne Bean & Jan Fitzgerald at the 8th tee; Di thomlinson - winner of Division 1; Margaret Pratt - winner of Division 2; Helen Stuart - winner of Division 3; the new protective fence at the ladies tee on the 9th; the newly planted oleanders on the 5th tee - these oleanders are miniature version & will be apricot in colour flowering for a good part of the year and are drought tolerant - Des & Yvonne Wilson have taken over this garden as part of the Adopt-A-Garden scheme & have done a wonderful job; our new fairway watering system currently being installed throughout the course.
