We had some nice hot (rain free) weather today building up to next week's predicted heat wave. If we could find a nice spot in the shade when the breeze lifted it was not too bad so overall the day was not too bad. Our playing partners were Grant and Kerry Williams and we did have some good highlights between us with Grant coming in our champion with 39 well earned points. Grant and Kerry were great company so an enjoyable day was had by all.

The Golf Event of the day was a Medley Team Stableford 1 x 2 x 3 + Single Stableford for Men and Ladies.
