Lovely day for Rescheduled Autumn Meeting

Very lucky that in spite of yet more overnight rain the rescheduled Autumn Meeting was played in sunshine and the course at Strathaven GC was in good condition considering the very wet summer and autumn weather.
.
We also enjoyed a nice meal afterwards.
The winners with an excellent score of 76 (net 71.2) were Lesley Lloyd, Hayston, and May Hughes , Lanark.
Runners Up were local members, sisters  Marie Scott and Agnes McCall with a net 74.4.
