Again a big thanks to Ian Lisle the Director of the event. Ian has the ability to keep things moving irrespective of the hurdles that appear along the way.

To the Guide Dogs committee who did the catering a big thanks. Great meals, great service.

Congratulations also to Cherie Edwards and her hard working team. Your hard work was well rewarded. Special mention to the coordinator Marelle Irvine who had her finger on the pulse at all times.

What a great result for the club but in particular Barbara Green and Maureen Wright. They finished second in the state with a percentage of 69.89.

Close on their heels and finishing fourth were Marelle Irvine and Sandra Capper who finished with a 69.46% result.

Of the 20 pairs who participated from Mudgee Club 6 finished in the top 100. Given the fact that there were some 451 pairs compete I believe this is a great overall result for Mudgee. Congratulations to all who participated.
