This is it! The big finale of the 2024 ladies night season. It was a great night for us with over 40 ladies in attendance. It was a fantastic night, from golf, Ringer Board winners, door prize winners, and the 50/50 winner.

Flight 3: Evelyn Lucas had a birdie on Hole 7 and Trish Thompson had a chip-in on Hole 2.
Next up are the Ringer Board winners. The Ringer Board is set up at the beginning of the year. Ladies put their first scores of the year up and then their improved scores later on. For example, let's say on Hole 8 the first score of the year was six strokes. Later on, the score you get on Hole 8 is four strokes. You would write under your first score your improved score.
There are two types of winners for the Ringer Board; those with the lowest ringer board score and those who have improved the most. Starting off with the lowest ringer board score, Monica Lee with 32 and Doreen Landry with 34. Most improved went to Leslie Stirling with a difference of 22 strokes from her first round compared to the ringer board round and Kayla Mosdell with a difference of 19 strokes.
After all the winners of the night were announced, it was time for the door prizes. Name after name was called out and the ladies made a mad dash to the prize table. Along with our normal door prizes, we had our hole-in-one prize on the line: an original painting from Bob Stirling of the clubhouse. Barb Smith got called, picked out the painting, and then donated it to hang in the Chinook Cove clubhouse. We are very thankful for your donation Barb. It is a beautiful painting that many people will enjoy when they come to golf. Once all the door prizes were gone, we announced the 50/50 winner. 50/50 this week was $97.50 and the winner was Linda Dunlop.
