It was a day of celebrations and memories when Mullumbimby Lady Golfers recently celebrated their 90th birthday.
Present and past members, life members, sponsors, and Club President, Alex Briggs, were treated to a delicious light lunch provided by the Bitz and Pizzas restaurant at the Mullum Golf Club.
Ladies President, Michelle Stenner, gave an entertaining account of the ladies’ golfing history. They originally played on Walkers Farm, now the site of Coolamon Villa, and if their ball landed in wet manure, it could ‘be moved without penalty.’
The golf course moved to its present location in 1947.
One thing that has been consistent throughout the years though has been the prevalence of wet weather!
The ladies look forward to celebrating their centenary in 2034.
