With strong numbers on par with last year’s tournament already entered, for each of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, our tournament is once again showing all the signs of a fantastic event. If any members did not receive a book of raffle tickets for our May Tournament major raffle of a Webber BBQ, which has been very kindly donated as our major fundraiser for the Tournament, and they would like one (or more) could they please see Liz Fisher. Tickets at $1 each are also available for purchase in the clubhouse where the BBQ is also on display.

Shirley Goodger was the winner following a three-way count back on 37pts. Carol Toms was the winner of the NTP on the 1st and balls went to Janette Blair, Peg James and Carol. Entertainment for the morning was provided courtesy of Narelle’s golf. Her playing partners, Jean, Janeen and Elaine, had plenty of laughs when Narelle played not one of her most consistent rounds. However, not all was lost as she made one claim to fame for the morning with a lovely birdie for a 4 pointer on the 6th hole. Next Saturday and Sunday sees Rounds 1 and 2 of the weekend championships held with the final round to be conducted on the following Saturday. Julie White
