RAVENSHOE

It’s time for the annual Tableland Challenge with the first round to be played at RMCC next Sunday August 1st.

This fun competitio­n between the 3 small clubs of Mt Garnet, Millaa Millaa and Ravenshoe has been a fixture on the golfing calendar for well over 30 years. It was originally called the Smith Shield in honour of Len and Berna Smith. The original competitio­n was played as a 4BBB Nett event, but has since morphed into a 2 Ball Ambrose.

Millaa Millaa has won the competitio­n on multiple occasions with the odd win to Mt Garnet or Ravenshoe. However, that doesn’t diminish the competitiv­e nature of the event.

Be at the course by 9 for a 9.30 Shotgun start. If you haven’t nominated your team yet get in touch with the club by Wednesday so that catering numbers can be determined. If you don’t have a partner let the club know and we’ll endeavour to find you one.

In the meantime, make the most of the beautiful golfing weather and
