The rain held off enough for us to stay dry, and some excellent scores were posted.
A field of 70 including 12 visitors from Waratah, Charlestown and Wagga Wagga Clubs played our 4Ball Irish (Odds/Evens) game over 16 holes.
Our winners of 4 tickets to the BGC Jazz Sunday on 6th December (Kindly donated by BGC!) were :

Thank you to all who contributed to our day, especially all of the ladies committee !
Special mentions to Leah Boyd (flowers), Chris Hill (Tee decorations), Rob Tracz (Chef), Kevin Kenny and all the staff (operating under difficulty of an OOS till!) even in their 'racing colours', David Boyd for the 'Calcutta', Anton Sanger (sweeps), Elena Barry (photos)and anyone else I may have forgotten?
Many players entered into the racing spirit with hats, (photos will be featured on the 'social blog' so I won't double up here) and a few members who won 'big' were seen to be also 'spending big' at the bar !
Congratulations to the winners and Thanks to all who participated in Melbourne Cup 2015. See you next year!
