Final Outing of 2009

For our last outing of 2009 we returned to Cregmore Park G.C. near Galway City. Over 30 members participated on what was a cloudy, overcast day.

Torrential rain on the day before our visit, made the course somewhat damp but all things considered, it was in good order.

The winner of the outing was that man from the midlands Seamus Dolan from Moate who finished on 39 pts. His colleague, Tom Costelloe finished 3rd also on 39 pts and a relatively unknown getting 2nd place with the same score.

The full list of prize-winners was as follows:

1st Seamus Dolan (10)
      Moate 39 pts
2nd Jerry Bradley (20)
       Tuam 39 pts
3rd Tom Costelloe (11)
      Moate 39 pts
4th John Connolly (14)
       Portumna 38 pts
5th Hugh Maher (17)
          Nenagh 38 pts
6th Trevor Moran (20)
        Portumna 37 pts
7th John Harte ( 5)
             Portumna 36 pts
8th P.J. Greensmith (17)
   Charleville 36 pts

Many thanks to our members who gave prizes for our table which was in fact our Christmas Outing, even though it was held in October!
