Summer Cup Round 1

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.
