PRESIDENTS DAY

What a super day we all had on Saturday when President Peter Tinker hosted his first Presidents Day. Almost 90 members took part on a glorious summers day. Iain and Marion, our mixed conveners, organised a 'shot gun' start which made it all the more enjoyable as we all finished around the same time which meant no waiting by anyone.

Peter, as ever, was a fantastic host making us all feel most welcome and assuring we fed superbly.

The scoring was very good, but one lady who is very much on her game is Alexandra Bushby who won the 'Presidents Cup' for the first time with a fantastic nett 68. Her scratch score of 71 was very impressive. Second place went to junior member Charlotte Bushby with nett 69. Well done.

The full results were as follows:

Ladies Nearest the Pin in two - Chris Tinker
Ladies Nearest the Pin - Sandy Bushby
Ladies Longest Drive - Alex Bushby
Ladies Longest Drive of a certain age - Chris Tinker
Gents Nearest the Pin in Two - John Menzies
Gents Nearest the Pin - Russell Peacock
Gents Longest Drive- Rory Hudson
Gents Longest Drive of a certain age - George Dolby

Peter also presented mixed conveners Marion and Iain with a bottle of wine in appreciation of their help in the organisation of the day.

Everyone present enjoyed the day and many thanks go to Peter for his hard work and generosity.
