We had a lovely cool day for our golf on the Village Green today - just a few light sprinkles of rain in the afternoon to tease us into thinking we were going to get some decent rain.

Our playing partners were Wally and Rhonda Robertson who were fantastic company even though our golf was somewhat wanting in parts - Rhonda was our super star who kept us on a steady keel - unfortunately the boys beat the girls for the Keno Ticket which was a battle to the 17th.

The Golf Event of the day was a Single Par for Men and Ladies + 2 Ball Team

We had 81 starters with 1 visitor from Nelson Bay
