The Ladies Annual Meeting took place on Friday, 11th October at the slightly later time of 6.30pm in the clubhouse attended by 25 Full members and 4 Wee Course ladies; 35 apologies were received. Ladies Captain, Elaine Robson, welcomed everyone to the meeting.

Elaine then handed over to Maggie Marshall, the incoming Captain and presented her with the Lady Captain's badge. Maggie congratulated Elaine on her successful year as Ladies Captain and presented her with a bouquet of flowers by way of thanks from the Club and the ladies section.
Maggie stated her pleasure that Heather Dawson was appointed as her Vice Captain. She thanked Morna Bell and Marion Kay for standing, and being elected, to the ladies committee whilst Pauline Hill will serve for one more year. The Wee course ladies will continue to be represented by Heather Welsh.
