Glen Mill and Ping Competition

Dear Members,

Thank you for making my Drive-in both memorable and enjoyable. I appreciate your support, kindness and good wishes. There was a great turn out to our game of Scotch Foursomes and excellent scores were returned. A pleasant afternoon followed with good food, wine and a sense of camaraderie and esprit de corps.

We have organised an outing to Glen Mill as Leopardstown will be closed on 8th April due to racing.   It is a very enjoyable and challenging par 3 course. Afterwards, we will adjourn to the Mount Kennedy Inn for prize-giving. The list is currently on the Notice Board and the cost is €12:50 per person. I hope to see many of you there.

The Ping Competition will be held on Saturday, 29th April. It will be an individual 9 hole stableford ccompetition.. The prizes will be provided by Ping -including G Le umbrellas and towels  – for 1st to 4th place. The top two placed ladies from Saturday Strollers will then advance to the Grand Final event. The Grand Final will be on Tuesday 23rd May. Each finalist will receive a small Ping gift on the day and there will be individual Ping prizes and trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. The winner will receive prizes to the approximate retail value of   €400, 2nd placed player to the value of €300 and 3rd placed  €150. 

This event coincides with the introduction of Ping’s new ladies family of golf equipment, the PING G Le, which has been engineered exclusively for women. All G Le clubs are available, by request, to demo from the golf shop.

 We are travelling to Faithlegg House Hotel and Golf Course in September for our biennial weekend away. Details are posted on the notice board. So please join us if you can!  

Congratulations to Linda Dougal who is the winner of Player of the Month for February.

Kind regards,

Marie
