24 SOS members and 3 guests Andrew, Gemma, and Liz gathered early Saturday morning to play for the Summer Cup or maybe just to play for fun.
Well, the day started with a couple of hiccups. 😁
Goochy cancelled his game and Andrew took his place in group 1
Shelley took Andrews place in group 2
Gerry thought he would share a buggy with Paul, but ended up with Birgit
Birgit changed place with Shelley
Barry took Birgit's place in group 4
Carol was on the list in group 7, but it should have been Derek
Derek replaced Shelley in group 3
Who replaced x in group 8?
Many were confused, but no one was really concerned as everybody was having a good time chatting, discussing, drinking coffee, tea and having a late brekkie.

RAFFLE TIME
For the first time in a while, the raffle tickets were sold out before the last group arrived. It looks like the members appreciate the change from winning a golf ball to the 5$ voucher (Wembley pro shop).
The first prize remains a $ 20 voucher for LOT SIX ZERO (Glen's bistro), and $5 vouchers for the pro shop to replace the balls we used to hand out.
- to have a delicious breakfast
- to discuss the golf scores of the day before
- to have a good time
