Today was our very popular 'PRESIDENT VS CAPTAIN DAY' which is always well supported by the members. The 12.30 shotgun start proved to be a successful arrangement with all members arriving back at the clubhouse at the same time for presentation and many stayed on for dinner. It was noisy but very congenial and everyone seemed to have a very enjoyable day and certainly the fine weather contributed.
We had 119 starters with 7 visitors from Everglades, Kempsey, Morisset and Wyong.
