Dear Ladies, a big thank you to everyone who managed to attend the AGM last Saturday after that wild storm. Just to let you know that the minutes of the AGM will be available soon, and the summer knock out sign up sheets are now on the notice board in the ladies locker room. At the AGM I started a campaign to install a toilet on the course and pledged a £1000 towards the £12000 required. I am delighted that we already have three more pledges and hope that more will come. Please sign the sheet in the ladies locker room if you wish to help and if you wish your name or the amount to remain anonymous please contact myself or Jim Park, House and Buildings Director. Finally I would like to thank everyone for their fabulous support over my year as Captain and wish Pauline MacEwen our new Captain good luck, better weather and lots of good fun. Kate Scott
The Ladies Section AGM was held on Saturday 25th January. There was a good turn out to support our outgoing Captain Kate Scott and to welcome the incoming Captain Pauline MacEwan. Fortunately storm Eowyn had blown itself out, but left a trail of destruction on the course and the next weather problem was SNOW!!
Looking forward to seeing you all at the AGM and Prize Giving next Saturday 25th January. 10.30am for 11am start.
Captain’s Drive In.
Our new Captains Pauline MacEwen and Alan McIntyre will tee off on Sunday 26th January. Time to be confirmed, but probably 9.30am. Please come and support the official start of their year and also play in the Stableford competition for the Drive In Trophy.

We were lucky to have the talented Anne Finnie to run 2 wreath making classes in the club. 16 ladies spent a fun time showing their artistic flare, making very professional door wreaths. This was followed by a lovely Christmas spread and a glass of prosecco. Our thanks go to Pauline MacEwan's sister and also to Leannna.
We were lucky enough, on Wed 4th, to have a dry morning and so the 9 hole Competition was able to be played in good conditions. 28 ladies played a 2 ball better ball stableford and several more non golfers joined the players for a festive lunch. Christmas jumpers were very much on display and there were a few ladies with Christmas head wear as well. The result was very close and had to be decide on a countback, the winning pair were Louise Cooper and Chris Minto. Best Chrismas outfit winner was Joy McLeod

What a wonderful evening everyone had on Wednesday. Good company, food and very entertaining games resulted in a lot of laughter, and noise! Captain Kate organised a raffle to raise funds for Dementia Charity and a huge number of exciting prizes were won. This raised an excellent £420.00.
Looking forward to seeing you at the dinner on Wednesday. Just to remind you that it will begin at 6.30pm with a ‘Fizz’ reception, with dinner commencing at 7pm.
Throughout the evening there will be opportunities to win some super prizes, including a 4 ball worth £200 and an SK Fitness voucher worth £110, to raise money for my charity, Dementia Scotland. We will also present the prizes for the Australian Scramble.
