Golf - Tuesday 18th June 2013

We had a beautiful day of sunshine for golf today.  My playing partners were Lyn Cruickshanks and Judy Verlander and we had a lovely day out on the course with some good highlights along the way.  We tried very hard to get a gobbler shot during the day by putting from off one side of the green and off the other side giving us two opportunities. However we did get some good putts in and Lyn excelled herself with some great one putts.

The Golf Event of the day was a Ladies Single Stroke - 4th GNSW & Club Medal NSWVWGA Championships.

We had 48 starters with one visitor Eileen Major from USA.
