2008 Long City C-Flight Champion Robert Creighton Club Champion Steve Friend and former Champion Bob Forster Visit Scotland DATELINE Scotland - May 2008
Bob Forster and I just returned from a golf vacation to
Scotland. In a word it was magnificent. We played 15 golf courses in the
10 days we were there, including the Old Course at St. Andrews and
Carnoustie and we planned the entire trip ourselves.
I wanted any Men's Club member who is interested in visiting
Scotland to know that he would be welcome to contact either one of us
for help in planning their trip. We used a book that we would recommend to
facilitate the process and would be happy to offer suggestions.
