Oaks Day 9th Nov 2023

20 Teams of Mixed Fours (80 players) gathered at Mooroolbark BC for the 2nd Oaks Day Tournament in perfect bowling weather. Greens 1 and 2 were used, with teams getting a game on each green. A two course chicken & champagne lunch was served halfway and Mooroolbark ladies as usual put on a terrific meal. Thanks to everyone who bought raffles and team sweepstakes tickets. The sweepstakes was popular with all tickets sold. Five lucky winners holding winning team tickets won $50 each and five won $35 for 2nd placed team tickets.

We thanked all our helpers already, but just another big thank you to everyone – too many to name here. Also to our greenkeepers. And of course our much valued sponsors without whom we couldn’t run these days.

Major sponsors are WM MATTHEWS FUNERALS AND ST JOHNS RISE RETIREMENT VILLAGE.
