4 June 2016 - The Ridge Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 6:49am

12 hardy individuals turned up at the course on a very wet and miserable morning. The Weather Bureau forecast was not good so the Captain decided to cancel the day's event. Nobody that turned up protested that decision and all went home to snuggle up to their respective partners.

Those who turned up were:
Peter Bull
Rob Guidi
Ian Cooper
Steve O'Grady
Scott Whyte
Jeff Saunders
Mick Connor
Chris Lee
Matt Whibley
Chris Slack

Gary Barnes, Phil Beardsley and Tim Pooley did a U-turn on the way to golf thinking their earlier decision to get out of bed to be foolish..

Horse Lotto was won by Gary Barnes - 25 minutes ahead of Rob Guidi who only needed 2 to go out but c'est la vie.
