1 min read

SATURDAY saw the running of Boort Golf Club’s annual Digger’s Day event, after it was postponed from the rained-out Anzac day. 
Sixteen players participated in a four-person ambrose competition over 14 holes with some excellent scores being recorded. 
Finishing on top were Karen Allison, Grant Tooth and Roz and Natham Wright, winning the countback decider after their nett 41.4 tied with Alan Stringer, Andrew Kane, Graeme Ball and Stuart Tweddle. Nearest the pins winners for the day were Andrew, Natham and Damien Lanyon. 
The club raised $450 which will go towards welfare of veterans.
Colleen Slatter donated the prizes on the day including the three knitted beanies.
Last Friday, members organised a fundraiser for the Do It For Dolly charity with golfing and other sports competitions for the evening.
This Saturday will be a stableford competition held at 12.30pm, along with the Captain versus President Matchplay held in conjunction with the first round of the singles knockout.
