The day finally arrived when we were allowed venture beyond our county boundaries for the Society’s first outing of 2021. Strandhill GC, Co Sligo was honoured with our presence on 15th May. Alan Loftus, Captain for 2021, hit a glorious tee shot down the first fairway to get us under way. He was followed by a further 34 members who attempted to follow his lead, unfortunately not all as successfully. Amongst many returning golfers two new members, Leo and Eanna, were welcomed to our ranks. The course was in great condition as usual and apart from a serious cloudburst mid round the weather behaved. The overall Outing Winner was Colm Loftus. Congrats Colm on your eleventh AGGS outing win. Mens Low winner was Tommy Aherne. In the Mens High competition, Declan Loftus was the victor with Arie Elberse just losing out on a countback. Breda Travers won the Ladies with runner up Brid Sullivan. The Loftus twins, Liam and Shane, shared the front and back 9 awards. Although the golf was not what it might have been for many, all enjoyed their day and were extremely happy to get out playing again, meeting old and new friends. Hopefully we will see another great turnout for our next outing which brings us to Farnham, Co. Cavan on 29 May with first tee time at 11.00.
