Kerry Williams - our champion winner at the Coolangatta/Tweed Vets Week of golf


Late afternoon finish for us at Coolangatta /Tweed Golf Course 


Hello from beautiful Tweed Heads on our final day of golf this week playing in the Coolangatta/Tweed Vets Week of Golf.

We had perfect weather today and were so lucky all week that we avoided any heavy rain. The Golf course was in great condition and we were impressed with the standard of the greens. The course is well maintained including the gardens.

Kerry Williams was our outstanding player from Gosford and balls were allocated to all players scoring 34 or better. Congratulations to the Vets Committee who put in a good effort to make it a good week for everyone.

We are now out of golf mode and into holiday mode.
