PANDORA CHARITY DAY - FRIDAY 10TH MARCH 2017 - SHOTGUN START

I understand that the Pandora Day had approximately 70 starters and was a very successful day.

A positive result I heard was that there was $146 raised at the 3rd tee where players had to try and drive off the tee and land in the tinny boat that was out in the 3rd dam.  I believe there were two successful winners.

We had good weather and a good number of players stayed back for Presentation in the Magnolia Room and some stayed on for dinner, raffles and the Members Draw.

I will publish the results when they come to hand.
