Another beautiful day for the society with our visit to the amazing Druid’s Glen Golf club.  The weather was decent for us and the recently upgraded course was absolutely tremendous. Well done and thanks to Brendan Fagan and Stock Design for his unique sponsorship of the outing – great job as always Brendan!
