Golf - Sunday 15th May 2011

We had a great day for golf today - more blue sky and sunshine which was wonderful for our popular Sunday Golf.

Our playing partners today were father & son Jas & Alex Palasty & we had an enjoyable day out on the village green. Our scores were no threat to the winners but we did have some highlights which will bring us back next week.

The Golf Event of the day was a 2 Ball Team + Single Stableford Mixed Men and Ladies.

We had 90 starters with 2 visitors from Nambucca Heads and Terrigal.
