With the Cowra golf course in pristine condition and many thanks to the greens staff and wonderful Cowra sponsors, Unearthed Homewares, Cowra Toyota, Allan Gray and Co, Beecher Wool Services, Style for Women, Carruthers Machinery, Cowra Services Motel and Cowra Shire Council, it set the stage for great golf and a few rain showers throughout the tournament did not dampen the spirit of the lady golfers to compete.
