To give you some history of this premiere event, in 1928, Daisy Savage was invited by Keith Barker, the Lake Karrinyup Country Club Captain, to become a Foundation Member of the club.
She was elected the first Lady Captain at LKCC in 1930. After WWII, when the Club was returned to the members, Daisy worked very hard on the social side to make the Club popular once again. In 1955, she handed down her Foundation Membership to her eldest daughter, Audrey James who was a member of LKCC until her death at the age of 100 in December 2013. Daisy’s granddaughter, Valerie Lapinski is an esteemed member of LKCC and has proudly presented her grandmother’s trophy since 2014.
This year, Valerie was once again proud to present our winners of this major event. 149 Female Members played in the fourball event on the main course, the outright winners on a fantastic score of 46 points were Marie Intini and Elizabeth Black. Well done to Laurel Meyers and Rebecca Peers falling just 1 point short on 45 points to claim Runner Up spot.
40 Female Members played 18 holes on the North Course. Sally Meadows and Christine Glenister were very proud to accept their trophy from Valerie, with a fantastic score of 45 points beating Louise Dickson and Pat Stapledon on countback.
This year mark four 50 year female member milestones, Lyn Meadows, Jean Williams, Leone Lorian and Wendy Dorrington collected their 50 year silver badges, congratulations to these four empowering women.
130+ very well-dressed Female Members had a delightful meal following presentations in the main bar. The dining room was full of delicious food, fine wine and lots of laughter.
Thank you to everyone involved in bringing this event to fruition.
