Today we had 30 members, which is good for February, competing for the prestigious monthly medal.They were joined by 7 guests so we had a great turnout considering the cold and windy weather we are experiencing. Our ex Captain Graham has gone to a health farm in England to recover from his year but new Captain Angel played his first round for some time and tempted us with some additional longest drives today combined with the usual 4 nearest the pins.
Longest Drive Hole 3 (Handicaps 21 Plus) Gordon Burton
Longest Drive Hole 6 (Handicaps Under 21) Greta Biersteker
Nearest The Pins
Hole 4 Les Wilkinson
Hole 8 Angel Centenera
Hole 11 Gordon Burton
Hole 14 Dennis Pyman
Congratulation to the winners who each received their customary prize of Vintage Rioja.
So to the Medal and as usual there were some really good scores, some average scores and some cricket scores!
5th Place Net 73 Franco Fanti
4th Place Net 73 Michael Davison
3rd Place Net 71 John Garnett
2nd Place Net 70 Ken Roles
1st Place Net 70 Greta Biersteker (Count Back)
Great scores considering the conditions and congratulations to all our winners.
Greta had a great day but then her best friend Dieck won the guest prize! They were heard celebrating way into the night.
The winner of the Bill Williams Away Day Shield 2014 was unable to be at the recent Presentation Evening so sponsor Bill Williams presented the prizes to Jan Boultbee. He was particularly pleased to present it to one of our newer members but more so that Jan was the first Lady Winner, many congratulations.
We are delighted to welcome 3 new members to the society, John and Gay Brooks, and Alan Perry. They have played as guests recently and we hope that you will welcome them warmly.
