SUNDOWNER - Tuesday, 1st July

Afternoon tea was served from 2.30pm with mini strawberry tarts, scones with jam and freshly whipped cream (thank you Tina!) and a variety of sandwiches on offer.  All of this was washed down by a glass (or two) of prosecco for those who wanted to partake (or tea/coffee) before we headed out to play.

The weather got better and better as the ladies teed off on Rosemount for 12 holes with 7 teams of 2 or 3  (best 2 scores to count) with the sun coming out which was a bonus.   It really was a beautiful evening showing the course at its best!  Wildlife were also out in force with deer running across the fairways, with rabbits, squirrels and even a mouse being spotted!

Post golf we gathered in the clubhouse for drinks and indulged in more scones, strawberry tarts and tray bakes and discussed our rounds, with one team in particular finding the bunker on too many occasions - interestingly, it was the team who won !!  

See results below: (holes 13-18 were recorded as nett pars)

1st - Teresa Lynch, Freda Erskine ad Shirley Lewis (143)

2nd - Louise Whitehead, Eileen Brown, Maggie Marshall (147)

Prizes were presented to winners and runners-up.  Congratulations !

Thank you for taking part in this fun event - I hope you enjoyed it.  Many thanks also to the catering team for such lovely treats and to Sean who I interrupted on several occasions to help with PSI issues.

Here are some photos from the day:

HANDICAP LEAGUE MATCH v. AWAY TO CRIEFF - Monday, 30th June

We received a very warm welcome when we visited Crieff for our second handicap league match of the season on Monday.  It was a warm and bright summer evening and the Ferntower course was beautifully presented.  Some of the matches were very close however, despite our best endeavours, we were unable to challenge the home team who won all 5 matches.

Despite this we had a most enjoyable time both on the course taking in the stunning views across the Strathearn valley and afterwards over a cooling refreshment in the clubhouse.

Many thanks to Carolyn Haddow, Lesley McPherson, Morna Bell, Angela Rooney and Elaine Robson (team captain) for representing the Club.
