NEW YEARS DAY CAPTAINS’ DRIVE-IN
Following the enjoyable New Years Eve party held in the club house the night before, our Captains Pat Stack and Maeve Morrissey kicked off 2012 with the annual Captain’s  Drive in followed by a 9 Hole Scramble. The popularity of the new Captains coupled with the unseasonably mild weather meant that almost 60 played in the scramble and many more came out for the drive in. We would like to thank Tom Day and his staff for the lovely provision of the hot whisky before the tee off and the finger food served afterwards.
We wish Pat and Maeve all the best in their forthcoming year. Results 1st Jan Captains’ Drive-In Captains scramble: Winners Ann Morrissey, Kolette Enright, Declan O'Keeffe ,Kevin Stack  2nd Ann Fitzgerald, Jim Walsh, Tony Keane, Donal Verling. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Chairman Seamus O’Neill, President J.P. Hayes, Captains Pat Stack and Maeve Morrissey, along with the other officers, committees and staff wish you the best for the New Year. Happy Golfing!
