In order to accommodate the player numbers, all three courses were utilised. The ladies played in teams of four with the best two scores to count resulting in some excellent scores. While still anticipating the completion of the new clubhouse, lunch was served at the delightful venue of Broughtons at the Bay, overlooking the Marina. The food was prepared by the Golf Club caterers, Tanya and Will Semmens. Being Valentine’s Day, table decorations of hearts and flowers followed that theme with several teams choosing to wear red. This year’s prizes were generously provided by principal sponsors Lyn Hollier and late husband Bob supplemented by the Lady Members. Following lunch, prizes were presented to the various categories of winners within each of the three courses. Details can be found in the Results section of this paper. By David BIRSS
