It is that time yet again, ladies’ night at Chinook Cove. Everybody went out on the course with high expectations only to golf what they normally golf. There seems to be a trend going on with our 18 hole golfers. That they all golfed better on their back nines, also known as the non-ladies night round. But, enough chit chat, let’s bring out the wine and get ready for the results!
Hole 1: KP in 3, Flight 1 goes to Karen Peterson. KP in 3, flight 2, went unclaimed tonight.
Hole 2: Long drive, Flight 3 goes to Emma Schilling. Long drive, flight 4, goes to Linda Dunlop.
