Canungra Area Golf

By Kim Sami

Tuesday 31st November: Ladies Presentation Luncheon  held at O’Reilly’s Winery.   The Canungra Ladies enjoyed a delicious meal and had a great day celebrating the achievements of all of the ladies at the Canungra Area Golf Club. 

Rain played havoc on the golf course over the next week or so but we managed to come together to celebrate Gala Day in an altered but very successful format. 

We also had our trophy presentation and enjoyed a scrumptious lunch supplied by the wonderful Canungra Golf Social Club.
