The Parklands Mixed Open event was played this Bank Holiday Monday in glorious sunny weather and with the course looking an absolute picture. 38 couples entered the event, the majority being Parklands members. With Danny Hall as the starter, the day started well and ended well with a presentation in the clubhouse at 4.30pm. The competition was very close with the five prizes decided over a single stableford point. The results were :-1st Geoff & Candy Brown (Parklands) 41pts (Back9); 2nd Ronnie & Natalie Dixon (Parklands) also with 41pts; 3rd Owen Fortune & Denise Swindlehurst (Parklands) 40pts (Back 9); 4th D & C Scott (Morpeth GC) 40pts (Back 9); 5th Ian Thompson & Mary Wright (Parklands) 40pts (Back 9).... no this was not a misprint I was part of the winning pair ......Many thanks to all the members who made this event happen and not least to Maureen Jenkins for her work on the day and Kath Morpeth for all the work on the day and all the days and weeks leading up to the event. The competition is run for the benefit of the members and visitors and we do not plan to make a profit on the day. However we did hold a raffle and the proceeds of this and the small profit has put an extra £140 into the Maureen Braven bridge fund. Well done to all who played and bought raffle tickets.
