We were honoured with the presence of two of Jean's daughters Toni Martin and Jane McArdell playing in our competition. Also our captain Vicki Gainsford returned after six weeks touring the UK Continent and Russia.
After some arm twisting Vivienne Halbisch attended her first Saturday competition for this year winning A grade and Jean Walters Memorial Trophy - along with nearest the pin ninth.
Vivienne won the trophy on a count back from Michelle Ashdown -1 who won first opp ball and Valerie Edmunds won 2nd opp ball -4 on a count back from Joy Whiteman, Vicki Gainsford and Tony Martin all -4.
B grade ball went to Wendy Jeffery -4.
C grade ball went to Elaine Ashdown -3.
