Today we held our first Open Day in 14 years. Despite a wet start spirits were high and by midday the sun was shining and the course was looking wonderful with very fast greens. A magnificent sum of £1,350 was raised, to be divided between Cruise Bereavement Care Scotland and St Vincent's Hospice. Congratulations to the winning team who came from Greenock Golf Club. Many thanks have to go to the Open Day Committee consisting of Marion, Alison, Anne, Eunice, Jean and Sara for their splendid organisation of the event. Thanks also to other ladies who helped from the Ladies Committee and to Helen Crichton and Jean Irvine for the lovely flower arrangements.
