ALL GOLFED OUT!!

Alexandra Bushby and Dawn Butchart took part in a sponsored golf day held at Strathmore Golf Club yesterday. The event, which was organised by Alexandra, was to raise monies for the Scottish County Finals which Perth and Kinross qualified for as the Northern Champions. This takes place at the Hirsel in Coldstream from 22nd - 25th September with a practice day on 21st September.

Alexandra, Dawn and Sally set off at 7.15am for their first round, Janet joined them at 12.00pm for the second round and they all played again at 5.45pm eventually crawling off the course around 9.15pm!!

Many thanks to all Strathmore Golf Club Members who donated sponsorship to this event and also to all other sponsors who contributed. We raised around £600.
