PINK was the ‘in’ colour at the Cooroy Golf Club on Thursday with the ladies supporting the “Tee Off for Breast Cancer Research” campaign.
Players, carts and golf buggies, all draped in pink, made a colourful sight as they spread across the course to compete in a dodgy stableford event.
‘Get out of trouble’ tickets were available for purchase, giving a clear advantage to those anxious to be separated from their money.
Over $1000 was raised by this small but enthusiast club, for breast cancer research.
They were well supported by generous donations from the Cooroy community and from the ongoing support from Noosa River and Canal Cruises who have provided not only their boat for a sunset cruise but also vouchers for the winners.
Kym Logan, from Noosa River and Canal Cruises, was there to present the prizes and show her support.
The golfers could not have wished for two more deserving winners in Barbara Taylor and Maria Taurer, with both ladies recently having medical issues, and Barbara coming straight from her sick bed to be a part of this truly worthwhile event.
