Whangarei clean sweep at Open 8B
It was a 1, 2, 3 for Whangarei in Saturday's tournament.
Congratulations to winners Neil Ruddell and Tania Brown. Runners up saw Janice Johnson and Helen Brodie coming top of the room in the morning session - an outstanding performance by an open/intermediate combo. Third were Richard Bland and Margaret Hooson. Top intermediates were Judith Byrne and Laura Maton. It was clear that Tania was also pleased with her win in the raffle and delighted to become the owner of the beautiful kauri bowl made and generously donated by Len Dent.
