BOXING DAY BASH

Some 20 members took the opportunity to walk off all that Christmas food by taking part in our annual Boxing Day Texas Scramble. For once the weather was actually very nice! We split up into five groups, each group consisted of four players one being a lady who was elected team captain. It was a great day with lots of fun. The scoring was very good, the winning team was captained by Dawn Butchart with team members Iain Butchart, Ian Taylor and Tony Sive. Their gross score was 59 which included 4 2's!! The net was 52.75.
The results were as follows:

1st Dawn Butchart, Iain Butchart, Ian Taylor & Tony Sive 52.75
2nd Sandy Bushby,John Wood,Bob Thomson & Homish Campbell 55.875
