Last Playday/Halloween

Thursday is our last official playday and you can wear your costumes and play together.  We will play a Cat fight.  

Margaret Lauer, our president, reports
"If you didn't play in the Ladies Club Championship this weekend you missed out on lots of fun.  Sean Renaud treated us really great. If you missed out this weekend you can still play in the Senior Ladies Club Championship on November 14 and 15."

Congratulations to our top finishers:
Ladies Club Champion...Beth Shepard
2nd Low Gross...Ellen Connors
1st Low Net...Joan Land-Net
