What a wonderful start to the year with full dams and thick green grass on most fairways and lush greens.  Thank you Brad and staff for all your hard work especially during and after the heavy rain we have received at different times.  Well girls lets get started with some good golf so that we can lower our handicaps!

Many ladies played golf at Whittlesea on a casual basis between our Christmas breakup and late January.  We commenced our 2012 syllabus on the 1st February with a guest day.  We had good attendance and a most enjoyable day  - with lots of talk and catching up after the break.  

Broadford ladies invited Whittlesea ladies to a 4BBB on Thursday 2^nd February. Unfortunately we only had a few who could attend.  Aileen Dundon and Glenda Eddy played in B grade and won their section with 52 points. Well done Aileen and Glenda we are very proud of you both.

On February 8^th we had our first Monthly medal for the year in excellent conditions. We were all delighted that our oldest lady member won with a 67 Nett.  Dot Evans started playing golf at Whittlesea when there was a 9 hole course down near the Whittlesea showgrounds.  Dot has been a member for approximately 58 years.  She  was club champion in 1964 and runner up several times.  Dot’s current handicap is 32 – not bad for somebody who is Dot’s age. Annette Bain was runner up with a 70 Nett and she also won the putting competition with 28.  Janine Lunny was “Nearest to the Pin”.
