THE wind and rain finally eased to allow Janet Halfoenney, the new Lady Captain of Stonyhurst Park Golf Club to hit a tremendous drive to ceremoniously mark the start of her year. The ladies of Stonyhurst enjoyed a wonderful afternoon of golf, prizes and a deli­


cious selection of homemade cakes, all baked by Lady Captain. The winner was Linda Ashworth with 20 points, second with 17 points was Margaret


McAllester and in third place was Lady Captain herself with a respectable 16 points, topping it off by being the only lady to score a two on the par 3 holes.
