I will get a Photo on Tuesday and post it here so we can see what out team needs to achieve to win the event.

A reminder to the Members that they can attend the dinner even if they did not play in the event. The next and final series will be a shotgun start followed by a dinner dance after the event Presentation.

Many thanks to Ron Puiatti for his generous donation of prizes for this popular event.
