LADIES RAISE £7100 FOR CHARITY
Our guests of honour from the Garden House Hospice accepted our cheque for the money that all the Ladies Section had raised in 2016 – a magnificent £7100. They were delighted and truly thankful. Well done everyone.
RESULTS
Xmas Greensomes saw so many festive outfits. A huge effort was made by so many that it was hard to choose the winning outfit. Congratulations to Angela and Hilary – not sure how they managed to play golf in their fat Xmas Pudding ensemble! More photos can be seen on our website.
We said Happy Birthday to Pam Wilson and she bought us all lovely mince pies and cream to celebrate
Marica challenged us all with her quiz – congratulations to Julia Goodwin and Liz Cooke who won on the tiebreaker question
Winners of the Xmas Greensome competition were: 1st Sally Weekes and Liz Cooke with 22 points, 2nd with 20 points were Lin Goodey and Helen Leigh.
After all the festivities of the day, several of us also attended the evening Christmas Party. Lovely meal and lots of dancing, fun and laughter.
