Big thank you from Aberdeenshire’s Ann Smart

A big thank you to all the lovely messages and cards I have received on the honorary membership at Banchory Golf Club. 

Golf has been a great part of my life. Offices held at club leading to national and county selection, junior county golf seeing a young Laura Murray and Michele Thomson progress through all the ranks and now really successful Professional golfers. 
Convincing Michele to give up the footie !  -- 

Then of course Aberdeenshire County Captain and that great Scottish Win with a great bunch of girls and not forgetting my back up team. 

To get honorary membership is the icing on the cake. 

There are a lot of famous names on that list and I’m very proud to be on it even though not for the same talent ! 

Banchory is a great club and the members make it. 

Thank you. 
Ann Smart
