Monday April the 16th saw an eclectic collection of 18 joyful Red Hatters descend on the Te Puke Gold Club. A putting challenge was the order of the day, and we were faced with 10 holes...each sporting festive purple balloons attached to their pins.
Two teams put their skills to work, and it soon became obvious that some gals had never held a golf club in their lives. However the enthusiasm they approached the game with made up for any lack of expertise, and by the end of the session they proved to be just as skilled as the more experienced golfers.
A total of four gals mananged a hole in one...Our trusty Queen, Lyn Barbour, Barbara (Lady Barberry), Barb Sundgren (Lady Leadfoot) and Sandy Wong (Lady Wong), and they received a sumpuous assortment of Easter Eggs for their efforts.
A red ribbon had also been placed behind one of the chairs, and the unsuspecting recipient became the grateful receiver of a stunning red boa.
A delicious lunch and a few wines were greatly appreciated after all the activity, and after a good old chinwag, the gals gradually dispersed to their respective homes. Thanks to all those who made this outing such a pleasure.
