Play in Pink Day

The Gold Coast are hosting this event on Sunday 15th September in aid of Breast Cancer awareness  in an 18 Hole Singles format, this being a charity event we are hoping to see all our ladies out on the fairways dressed in as much pink as possible!! This year the Men’s club have decided to take part in the Pink Day, which should make this a fun day for all, it will be interesting to see what shades of pink the boys will arrive in!!!!!

 

Card Rota System

We are currently looking for volunteers to help with competition results, a knowledge of computers is an advantage but not essential as tuition will be given, also being a committee member is not a requirement. Please forward your name to Lady Captain or any committee member, it would be much appreciated!!
