Jill Grice, Lyn Pullan and Frances Nicol represented Paeroa at Whakatane. With torrential rain for the drive down and the weather experts predicting 98% chance of rain for the Monday we were all geared up to face the elements!! But as you see, it was a beautiful sunny day in the Bay.
Our golf didn't shine as much tho -placed 11th.
Otumoetai won it for the 2nd year in a row with 100 stableford points.
​Lovely course and lovely company. Jill even learnt a new card game!!

OCTOBER 16-17...LADIES' RAGLAN TRIP 
16 of our ladies headed west to the black sands and surf of Raglan. Played 9 holes of golf at Te Kowhai and Raglan with lots of  laughter, food, shopping, and drinkies too.
Had dinner at the historic Raglan Hotel where Elaine showed us her waitering skills, Chris Alley was the grand quiz master and Debbie was champion joke teller-not bank teller!!
And after a very vivacious game of 5 Crowns, Margaret couldn't tell her left from right and ended up trying to get into the wrong bed:) ... OOPs! what goes on tour is meant to stay on tour :) All good fun-where to next year gals?
