River Sunday as the club likes to call it was sponsored by Coral and Geoff McCann with the field feeling the effects of the hot weather. Making the best of conditions was Shane Anderson and Linne Street a score of 63.50 from a handicap of 11.50. Next to greet the judge so to speak was Uri Ylinen and  Nicole Purser (11.75) and a score of 64.25. Next in the two person Ambrose was Deidre Byrne and Kel McGoldrick with 65 points, followed by Chris and Garnie O’Brien 66.50.

Many interested members attended an information meeting at the club on Sunday morning, and those who attended found out that the club will have to stand on its own feet as prospects of an amalgamation have diminished at this time.
