SSAFA 125 Charity Golf Open and Family Day On the 24th October SSAFA held a Charity Golf Open Competition and Family Day. 72 people attended to take part in a 4 ball competition. As usual it was a sunny day and everyone enjoyed their time on this unique course. This year 8 holes were sponsored to a tune of €125 a hole. The final scores are set out below. At the same time a Family Day took place. There was a bouncy castle and face painting for the kids along with a children’s putting competition. For everyone a competition was held on the driving range. Each person had to hit a ball as close to the 125 meter pin as possible. The nearest at the end of the day won €125. A wine tasting session was laid on by Monolithos Winery, Pachna who brought with them some excellent wine that was enjoyed by all. Most visitors and golfers also availed themselves of the full English breakfast which was on sale   all day for only €1.25 a head.
