Golfing in the Glenns 04 Jan 2011
GOOD NEWS!
The good news for all active golfers is that the Glenns is up and running after a long snowbound break. This weekend sees the popular mixed scramble taking pride of place. Please note the competition will run from 12.30 to 1.30pm. Also, the 18 hole (any combination) will run during the month of January. Word from the Glenns is, the course is in excellent condition despite the snow and the heavy frost. Much thanks are due to the course staff.
