Golf - Sunday 14th January 2018

Lorraine Bignall (3rd place Ladies Singles), Kevin O''Brien,

Jan Martin & Peter Martin at the 1st Tee

We had a different weather day today to tackle our golf day - much cooler than yesterday and combined with a very (almost gale force) windy day to test our golf skills.  Our playing partners were Kevin O'Brien & Lorraine Bignall and we had a very pleasant day on the village green. Lorraine played well to come in 3rd place in the ladies, our best highlight was two chip in birdies from Peter.

The Golf Event of the day was a Single Par + 2 Ball Team.

We had 79 starters with 3 visitors from Nambucca Heads, Everglades and Kareela.
