Wednesday Seniors (The Geriatrics) The main event of the year was that we were allowed back into the bar which is as important to the Geriatrics as the golf. This was closely followed by re-instating the Annual Lunch and prize giving. We are continuing to have a draw for tee times and for most members paying our match fees by BACS. A new competition was introduced, the Autumn Mixed Foursomes, which replaced the annual match against the ladies. This was a match between the Lady Captain's team and the Geriatrics President's team which the Lady Captain's team won 5 – 3. President John Logan said that when he took over the group the men lost their match against the ladies and so his team have now lost the first playing of this format! Congratulations to Alison. Whilst we are enjoying ourselves our donations (which is the weekly entry fee) have been accumulating. This year we again raised £1250 for charity - £500 each to the Dornoch Medical Practice and the Highland Hospice, and £250 to the Heritage Society. Our Annual Luncheon and Competition took place on Wednesday 29th September and was well attended as usual. Many thanks to the Chef & Catering Staff as we were once again well fed and watered. I also thank the front of house staff for looking after us throughout the season. Our guests were: President Gordon Lawson, Captain Willie MacKay, Lady Captain Alison Bartlett, Assistant Manager, Claire Riddell, and Head Pro Andrew Skinner. Alison graciously presented the prizes & trophies. As usual we all retired mellow and happy. John S Logan 32
