Hello all: Our ladies section has come up with a great idea to pay tribute to Elsie McGrath. Her favorite color was yellow and as such, all the ladies have decided to wear yellow for next Tuesday’s golf. I am sure there will be a few visors in the crowd too as that was always Elsie’s headwear of choice.
I didn’t get to know her well as a young golfer growing up but that multi-colored Yamaha golf cart was a constant at, and on the golf course. I remember lots of days when there was bad weather and the majority of players were huddled up inside waiting out the rain and we’d see Elsie roar by on the way to the tee with her rain pants on and visor synched tight seemingly unaffected by mother natures thoughts and intentions.
We are taking some of the membership down to Waterton next Tuesday but I urge anyone that knew Else, wherever you may be playing that day, to find some yellow and a visor and wear it with a smile.
Hope to see you here on Friday for a coffee and a story.
