Sad News

 It is with much sadness that I report the death on Tuesday of Pat Casey.

Pat, a member of Hayston  Golf Club, was a very active member of the County. Until unable to do so, due to illness, she regularly participated with some success in competitions and attended social functions. 

She was also an ever present caddy for the team at Inter County Matches,.

Her friendly and outgoing personality will be missed but none more so than by her husband Graham and family and by her twin sister, Anne Lloyd, and to them we send our sincere sympathy.

Congratulations Megan

 Very many congratulations to Megan Docherty on winning the Scottish Golf Clark Rosebowl at Southerness G C today.

Megan won her Semi final 6&4 against Evie McCallum and bt Louisa Hamilton at the 19th in the final.
