DIE LEKKERSTE gholfdag van die jaar, die
aand- en middagkompetisie van die Tzaneense
Sakekamer, vind weer eerskomende Vrydag by
die Tzaneense Buiteklub plaas.
Aandgholf sorg vir sy eie pret en vermaak en

gevolg deur ‘n heerlike ete voor die
aand-gedeelte begin, gaan dit weer ‘n baie
genotvolle dag wees.

organisasies wat spanne wil inskryf aangeraai
om dit so gou moontlik te doen.
Die kompetisie neem die vorm van ‘n vierbal
"American Scramble" aan en die hele
geleentheid is daarop gemik om ontspanne
gholf te speel en die aand te geniet.
‘n Groot aantal pryse sal weer op die spel wees
en die inskrywingsgeld van R800 per span sluit
die middag - en aandgholf, aandete, ververings
op die baan en groot pret in.
