- FAITH QINGA

The 25th anniversar­y of the Mad Hatters Golf Tournament was held at the Royal Port Alfred Golf Club from April 25 to April 30.

The Mad Hatter pre-prize giving dinner on Friday night saw stylist hats worn on the evening and as tradition, anyone who attended the evening without a mad hat was fined, with the proceeds of approximat­ely R11,080 collected going to Sunshine Coast Hospice.

On the evening, a raffle took place where Dave Wilson chose the winning tick and Tony Stack walked away with the jackpot of R175,000 from the raffle.
