Group photo prior to Texas Scramble on Rosemount
On Friday 27th September 58 ladies signed up to play in the Lady Captain's Day 3 Team Texas Scramble, 40 on Rosemount and 18 on the Wee Course. The format certainly created a good team atmosphere and from the photos taken in the lounge after the event everyone seemed to be embracing our 130 years celebrations. The Lady Captain, dressed up for the occasion in her kilt and bunnet, and some other ladies wore a variety of items relating to 1889. When the Lady Captain came on to the 1st hole she was piped onto the tee via iPad. On the 18th green the ladies had to put out with a Hickory putter and pay a pound if they landed in the Captain's Greenside bunker.
After the game, a number of Social members joined the players to enjoy a complimentary glass of wine or mocktails created by Angie. In the dining room the ladies sat down to a wonderful hot/cold buffet and Cup-cakes decorated with 130 years. The atmosphere was lively while the members enjoyed the rest of their afternoon which included the presentation of prizes for both courses. Once again it was good to see our newest members join in the activities, playing on the Wee Course, but intending to become full members next year.
Mary Miller gave the vote of thanks to the Lady Captain, Gary and Elaine, caterers and Angie and her bar staff for a great day.
