Ladies Outing to Lenzie GC
Each year the Lady Captain organises an outing to another golf course for the day.
This year we graced Lenzie GC with our presence. The conditions couldn't have been better, the sun shone, the wind didn't blow and the course was in superb condition for us. The majority of us found the course challenging but some met the challenge with their usual expertise. 
Fiona Alexander defended her title from last year and won the Stableford Competition with a par of 36 points ... well done Fiona.
In second place with 33 points
Sylvia Haddock.
In third place with 32 points is Adrienne MacLagan.
In fourth place with 30 points is a rosy Karen M
cIlvaney (very sunny day)
Christine Taggart won the 5th prize with a score of 29points, 
and Ina 
Cameron was in 6th place with 29 points.
Well done all the winners and commiserations to the rest of us!
To our great surprise Alan Harris and friends were having 'a quiet drink' (Lisa's words) to mark Alan's departure from Bearsden GC so there was an opportunity for hugs with Alan and words of farewell and good wishes from the ladies. 
Ashbourne Homes 2010
The Trophy was presented to the Ladies Section in 1992 by Ashbourne Homes.
They own Clarence Court Care Home at Broomhill Cross and the Administrator, Activities Manager and two Residents usually come to the Club on the afternoon of the Competition to have afternoon tea and present the prizes. Here we are waiting expectantly for Prizegiving t
o begin.

Ladies' Invitation Day 2010
Every year the Ladies’ Section has an Invitation Day which is organised by the Lady Captain and the Committee. The format is a Greensome Competition and those taking part invite a friend from another club. The Lady Captain organises the prizes for the winners and we have a Tombola, the prizes for which are supplied by the members. The local shops are usually very generous when asked to make donations for our raffle, the proceeds from which go to the Captain’s chosen Charity.
This year 36 couples took part; the day was dull and cooler than of late with the odd shower of light rain. Madelaine’s Caddy Shack supplied a substantial lunch which was enjoyed by all as was the whole event. The scores were very competitive.
The 1st Handicap prize was won by Clare Stuart and partner Elizabeth Greenan from Cathkin GC. They scored a nett 66.6 (and that included 11 at the second hole!) Well done. They are pictured here with the Kathleen Isles Trophy which was presented by her family in 1989. Clare was also ‘nearest the pin' at the 14th.
Lowest Gross
The Scratch prize was awarded to Anne Nicoll and Sarah Tryon (Buchanan Castle GC) with a gross 85.
They received the Royal Bank of Scotland Trophy (1994). Sarah was once a member here. Well done.
In Second place
The 2nd Handicap prize was one by VC Christine Morrison and Alison White (Douglas Park GC) with a nett score of 66.8 (very close).
Well done.
In third place
The 3rd Handicap prize was won by 
Moyra Sleight and Sandra Donnelly (Milngavie) with a nett score of 67 acb
(again very close). Well done.
Putting Prize
The putting prize was won by Lynn McColl and partner Jan Grant (Hilton) with 28 putts.
Well done.
Longest Drive
Nicola Ferguson (Milngavie) hit ‘the longest drive’ at the 4th hole. She was the youngest player and was partnering Margaret Mathieson.
Magic 2
The prize for Magic 2 was awarded to Violet Leitch and Miranda McAinch (Milngavie) absent from photo. Vi here with Lady Captain Karen and Andy Murray.
Hidden Hole
The prize for the ‘hidden hole’ went to Eleanor Norris and her sister Christine Baird (Douglas Park GC).
They were rather embarrassed but cheerful nonetheless.
