Golf Day

This year Down Syndrome Victoria held its annual Golf Day fundraising event at the Growling Frog Golf Course on Sunday 18th November. Golf Day aims to raise funds for the Down Syndrome Victoria Education Inclusion Support Service, which supports students with Down syndrome to achieve the best possible outcomes in mainstream primary and secondary schools.
With a shotgun start at 8:30am, the rain also started however it soon cleared with only 2 holes played in the drizzle before the sun appeared and turned into a glorious day for all our golfers to enjoy. The team scores and placements for day are as follows:
