A Ladies Open 3 Ball Waltz was held at Cahir Park Golf Club as a fundraiser for South Tipperary Hospice.
The day started with a very successful Hospice fundraising coffee morning at the clubhouse. An amazing array of homemade cakes and pastries were provided by the members. It was a sight to behold.
The coffee morning was enthusiastically supported by club members and visitors. Many thanks to Gihan Catering staff who helped club members to keep the morning running smoothly.
The Hospice Golf Day itself was very successful, as 33 teams entered the Open 3 Ball Waltz. The day started out with wet weather but brightened up to make golfing more enjoyable for all participants.
The day ended with a prizegiving ceremony for the successful teams. The prizes were sponsored by Noel Flanagan, Cahir Carpets and Ned Grant & Sons Builders.
This was followed by the donation of a cheque for €5,400 to Anne Cuffe and Ann Guida, Board members of the South Tipperary Hospice Movement.
All in all it was a most successful, fruitful and a really enjoyable day for a very worthy cause.
Many thanks to all our tee box sponsors and donors.
