Kerang

EIGHT ladies trusted the weather forecast and set off to play stroke/monthly medal on Wednesday.

It was very hard going, however our captain Michelle Dillon won the day with 74 net.

The putting competition (26 putts) and nearest the pin on the 9th were also won by Michelle. Carol Dear (75 net) and Lorraine Bray (80 net) were in the ball pool.

Our Gold Watch Tournament will be on May 26 (4BBB) so note the date and try to support this event.

Next week is 9.30am for 10am start and all players are welcome.

A larger field turned up for Thursday’s R&R Stableford event, played in good conditions.
