On Sunday 22nd May 30 ladies took part in Captain's Day for Ladies. We were met on the first tee by Mr Captain Andrew Baxter. He was accompanied by Mike Wootton who was acting as the photographer. As we approached the Millennium hut on the 11th tee we were greeted by Caroline and Mike who by this time had made his way to help Caroline. The drinks and scones were most welcome at this point.
