Re-arranged Spring Meeting at Auchterarder - 23rd August 2012

84 Midland Vets enjoyed very pleasant conditions today for the re-arranged Spring Meeting at Auchterarder.  There were only a few very light showers, and those out later in the day managed to play round with no rain at all!  We all had the added bonus of a free viewing of the Johnnie Walker pros playing the 16th hole on the PGA Centenary Course.  We might even feature on the TV?!

The competition was Reduction Only with a CSS of 73 - for those who played well enough to merit a reduction in their handicap (Margaret T, Heather, Fiona and Margaret H) - well done!

Winner of the Allan Cup and Captain's Prize - Margaret Tough - 70.
