DESSERT DEMONSTRATION WINTER SOCIAL - 11 March

Anne had promised us quick, simple but very tasty desserts - thank you to all ladies that came along to watch, learn, and most of all sample her delicious puddings.  Anne demonstrated how easy it is to make Key Lime Pie, Cherry Cake, Banoffee Pie, Tiramisu and microwave Sponge Pudding, assisted by Heather Dawson and Pauline Hill.

This fun and tasty event was also informative as Anne had included a food quiz (with 3 lucky question number winners) and a prize for the closest estimation of what 4oz of sugar was.  Gill Tissell won a set of silicon baking implemets in the food quiz, and Jennifer Livingston was awarded with measuring spoons and cups for being closest in the sugar challenge, having measured 3.8oz.  Anne also collected donations for SCAA - thank you to everyone that contributed - another £80 raised for the charity.


Looks delicious Anne - I'm sorry to have missed it!!

LADIES CAPTAIN v VICE CAPTAIN SEASON OPENING EVENT - 29th March

I am very much looking forward to kicking off the new season by competing for the friendship bowl in the traditional Ladies Captain v Vice Captain match.

The day will commence with a group photo at 9:30am on the 1st tee of Rosemount, with a shotgun start at 10am.  A stableford competition will also take place on the Wee Course, with two opening day prizes to play for.

Fairway mats will not be required, and there is no need to change for lunch (but of course you can if you wish to do so).

After play there will be a one course lunch in the dining room - this is open to all lady members, including those that have been unable to play on the day.

Menu options and booking details are shown below.  I hope you can join us.



LADIES GET-TOGETHER - 22nd March

Please come along and meet fellow lady members to launch the new season.  Our guest for the evening will be Mike Beale, co-founder and interim chair of my chosen charity, Scotland's Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA).  Mike will speak to us after our meal to update us on "SCAA - 10 years on".

The attached poster, which is also displayed in the ladies locker room, provides menu options and booking details.  I hope to see you there.
