32 Seniors booked to play and 32 did on a windy cool day.
Congratulations to Alan Izzard getting his first Hole in One - on the sixth - Well done.
Some morning and the lunchtime scorecards have still to be checked and this will happen on Monday as I need to show the potential new Senior Convenor exactly what is involved in running the Senior competitions. Will post the full results then.
This is the last event to decide our Senior Scratch and Handicap Champions - play well guys.
The funeral of our Club President Sally Fenner has been arranged for 10.30am on Friday 4th October 2024 at Perth Crematorium.
Thereafter to Strathmore Golf Centre.
To give the Centre a rough idea of numbers for those intending to return to Strathmore, then please text Ian Cameron on 07740 612362.
Sally has been an enthusiastic member of Strathmore for many years. She has served on committee as captain, as well as holding other posts, and for the last few years has been the President of the Club, chairing our Strathmore Golf Management meetings with extremely good spirit and some grit when required.
Over the last few years she has been determined, stoic (and many other apt terms) although constantly frustrated with the ankle and her more recent cancer diagnosis. She had been in hospital in recent weeks, moving to a hospice room in Perth at the beginning of the week escaping the hospital environment and enjoying her visitors.
She
will be very sadly missed by the whole club, and many of the ladies
have been family to her in so many ways. She has continued to contribute
to the WhatsApp chat into this week and valued the connections and
support immensely.
