Lang Lang Golf Club is celebrating its 60th year and to mark this special occasion a lunch and golf day took place on Sunday with current members, past members and life members all coming together to celebrate the impressive milestone.

Although the weather was not fantastic, a great day was still had by all that attended.

Congratulations to Cheryl Stockdale and Lee Andrews for winning the Joy Kitchen Foursomes event with a gross score of 102, and also congratulations to Anne Schellekens and Betty Robertson for being the nett winners with a score of 73…well played to you all.
