Cruit Island Golf Club hold their annual classic event

Hugh, Columba, Val, and JJ take the honours

Cruit Island Golf Club had an excellent turn-out for their annual Golf Classic and a big thank you goes out  to everyone for their support. To all the golfers who went out in wind and rain, to all the sponsors of teams and tees, to Declan and his hard working committee, to lucky golfers who got it dry with little sunshine, thank you, it wouldnt have been possible without you. Well done to Hugh, Columba, Val, and JJ who had winning score in worst part of the day.
