Tuesday Section 2011 Gala Day
The 2011 Tuesday Section "Gala Day", also known as their Member and Guest Day, was held on Tuesday 28th June in fine weather. The format was a shotgun start for better-ball two-man teams, with 64 players taking part, and despite the title it was acceptable for two Members of the Tuesday Section to partner each other.

The registration was carried out by the section's Secretary, Harry Franklin (seated, left) and Treasurer, Stuart Clark (also seated) with the Match Secretary Bill McFarlane (standing, right) appearing to supervise the querying of Donald MacCaskill's entry.
|
After the golf a fine meal was served up in the Lounge and there followed the Prizegiving, prizes being presented by Chairman Eddie Meek (left) and organised by Harry Franklin who appears to be taken aback by some of the Chairman's introductory comments.

|
The winners with a fine net score of 60 were the Club's BPL Team Manager, Mark Lironi (left), and David Findlay, both Members of the Section.
|
Runners up with a net 61 and the Better Inward Half were also Section Members, David James (left) and the Club's webmaster Frank Kinghorn (who arranged for Past Captain Fraser Rae to take this photograph).

|
|
Third place went to Tim McFadyen and Jim Allum, again both Members of the Section, and also with a net score of 61. |
The prize for the best score for a team consisting of a Section Member and a visitor from another Club went to Bob Moffat (left - the Member) and Alex Roy (the Visitor) who had a net 62 - just outside the other prizes.

Jim Patton added the liquid prize for the Longest Drive (at the 14th Hole) to the golf balls he recieved for his Nearest the Pin.
|
For the higher handicappers the Longest Drive was won by Bill Usher. |
|
The final prize was a donation of two bottles of whisky from a member, and this was for the pair who have "most scope for improvement". They turned out to be Bill Stewart (left) and Joe Rocks, the latter having been until recently the Match Secretary for the Tuesday Section. Their score was not revealed!
