Yesterday Aorangi Golf held a Junior Event at the Geraldine District Golf Club.
Unfortunately, the weather was not kind but 11 juniors played in very cold & rainy conditions.
There were no complaints, they just enjoyed being together, had fun and were a pleasure to be around.
Food was provided by the ladies at the Geraldine Golf Club, and was very much appreciated. Everyone got a prize so all went home happy.
That's what it's all about. Thanks everyone.
