Wednesday Fun Day – October 30

THEME of the competition was a nod to Halloween as teams of four played a Stableford with three scores to count on the first nine holes and two on the back nine, plus doubling the score on the par threes.

Although the greens have been hollow tined recently, they still putted well and the plus was that all ladies were dry throughout the game.

Pumpkins were not prizes but all the chocolate prizes were mainly in orange!

The organiser does not usually play, but as there was a late drop out, Sue stepped in.

Results: 1 Sue Wenmoth, Pam Hughes, Karen Ford and Carol Abbott – 105pts; 2 Julie Cleaton, Sally Floyd, Hilda McKinley and Gill Connor – 103pts.
