Weather
wins out at Skerries
(Outing refixed for Monday 8th October)
The move to a later than usual starting time
for Skerries did not prove kind on Monday 18th June as torrential
rain, accompanied by hailstones and thunder, forced all but the early
starters and the foolhardy to abandon the golf and run for the shelter
of the welcoming Clubhouse.
With almost half of those playing unable to complete their rounds,
the Committee wisely decided not to declare any results but instead
to approach the Golf Club and ask for another date for the outing.
The photo above shows the flood on the 18th green at the height of
the deluge, but a second photo taken 20
minutes later illustrates the quality of the drainage.
Skerries is a great place to play golf and has featured on the PRTV
Society calendar for many years. We were just unfortunate to encounter
the cloudburst when we did and we look forward to returning to complete
the job hopefully before long.
