Minto Golf Outing 2nd September

 

Driving down into the borders yesterday on the way to Minto golf Course was a treat to behold. Gorgeous weather and scenery and a warm welcome from the Club members. The course was so lush that the balls stuck in the first cut if you were unlucky enough to miss the fairway and the trees. I think you know where this is going?  It was a challenge for some in our group!

For Lesley Mclelland and Maxine Manditsch the course was wonderful as they won the official event and the Glen first prize. Congratulations to them both.

Second for the Glen was Avril Anderson and Marlene Waudby and with the lowest number of putts in the round Sheila Reid and Anne Littlefair.

A lovely day out that we need to thank Isabel Nisbet for organising. Next year we want even more members to join us.

Well done everyone.
