The photo below says it all, course closed 🙁 It looks like the sun is coming out tomorrow but I’m not sure whether it will be warm enough to melt the remaining snow. The next course inspection is at 0700 tomorrow morning.
The other two photos show the outdoor Christmas tree looking very festive in last week’s heavy frost. The other equally fine looking trees were in their holding position before being planted either on the first hole or by the course boundary on Orchard.
Ladies Back Nine Stableford
Congratulations to Jo Egerton for winning last week’s comp with a great tally of 21 points. Freda Hunt was just one point adrift to secure second place.
Thanks to Terri Broadbent for the action photos in the frost and she’s absolutely bang on when she said “we’re a hardy bunch to go out in today’s weather!”
New Hale GC Accessories
We have received a top up of Hale GC crested accessories just in time for Crimbo. Some of which are shown below: headcovers, beanies, pitchmark repairers and towels. These would make excellent stocking fillers.
Men’s Turkey Trot
Unfortunately Friday night’s snow kiboshed the men’s Turkey Trot. Lunch still went ahead though and thanks to Bob Siddle for creating a quiz for the attendees to sink their tee into. The winners were Roger Fielding and Tony Bray.
Last place on a card playoff (not sure how that works!) went to President Barry Jefferies and Ted Shaw. They won the Paxo stuffing kindly donated by Peter Harden.
