On Wednesday, 31 July, the Ayr Golf Club hosted the annual Jan Pilcher Day, attracting a strong field of 23 ladies despite some having played four solid days of golf prior at the outstanding 2024 Handicap Pennant competition. The weather was pleasant with a bit of wind, but it didn't deter the golfers from achieving impressive scores.
This year, Jan Pilcher's daughter, Celeste, along with her children Radley and Jazlyn, travelled from Townsville to present the winners. Celeste reminisced about her childhood spent on the golf course, adding a personal touch to the event.
Katrina Hearn emerged as the winner with a remarkable score of 42 points. Runner-up Lorraine Henderson scored 36 points, continuing her excellent form after being the overall winner of the two-day Drummond Golf Vets Classic. Betty Durrant secured third place with 35 points.
Additionally, a special prize was awarded to Wendy Baker for traveling the greatest distance to participate, and Cecily Lena won the raffle.
The event was a wonderful tribute to Jan Pilcher, with participants and organisers alike feeling her presence throughout the day. Congratulations to all the winners and participants for making it a memorable occasion.
