HELEN MELON FUN TIMES.
Helen Melon Properties recently sponsored the first ever Brackenridge Estate vs Whale Rock Ridge Golf Challenge. Held at the Plettenberg Bay Golf Club on a fine sunny afternoon, 8 teams of four, comprising pairings from both estates, took to the course in pursuit of the gleaming new glass and silver Helen Melon trophy, which proudly sports the all familiar red and green ‘melon slice’ logo. This was a trophy to truly fight for!
The day was a resounding success, with all players enjoying close fought battles in the heat of the day. With three points awarded to each winning pairing, and a point for a draw, the tension was mounting when the results were showing a draw up until the last match of the day. The result of the final match would determine the winner of the Helen Melon trophy!
With all players in, but with one scorecard still not handed in (due to the players showering!) and with a draw looking to be the most likely outcome, the remaining card finally revealed Brackenridge Estate to be the victors.
The day concluded with prize giving, with Helen Melon providing ample prizes for nearest the pins, longest drives and the top three pairings and was followed by a braai supper at the club for 50 fellow Brackenridgers and Whale Rockers. A most successful occasion and one which will become an Annual Helen Melon sponsored event.
