Frances in Front
A large turnout of lady golfers competed for the beautiful array of prizes on a sunny but showery day at County Armagh Lady Captain's Day on Saturday 28th July. The day commenced with the Lady Captain Paula McCrory welcoming her family and many guests to a very busy and enjoyable morning coffee. The hard working Ladies' Committee left no stone unturned to ensure the success of this event. As the ladies ventured out to play the sun shone on a well manicured course. Later a few showers dampened the fairways but not the enthusiasm of the lady golfers. Frances Davidson emerged as the winner with a nett 67. Elizabeth Mawhinney followed closely behind (nett 69). The gross prize was picked up by Teresa McVeigh (81). Front 9 winner was Joy Steenson and Sheila Stinson won the back 9. Category prizewinners were as follows: A: B. Rice, B: U. Cullinane, C: A.
