GOLF
Lady golfers in pyjamas
The Cabarlah Golf Club Monday Ladies Social
Golf Group celebrated National Pyjama Day by
playing golf in their pyjamas. They were raising
funds and awareness for The Pyjama Foundation.
The foundation supports children in foster care by
providing a learning-based mentoring program free of
charge. Their aim is to offer the children the opportunity
to change the direction of their life through learning,
life skills and confidence and to also improve their
educational outcome through reading. Volunteers are
trained in the "Love of Learning Program" and visit
foster children on a weekly basis. The volunteers are
known as "Pyjama Angels". They spend time with a
child reading, helping with homework, and sometimes
just chatting and listening. A "Pyjama Angel" makes a
foster child feel special.
The golfers had an enjoyable morning on the
course, and then enjoyed lunch in the Cabarlah
Golf Course Clubhouse. Organiser, Carmel Lyall, a
Pyjama Angel for 4 years, was well supported in her
endeavour to raise awareness of the Foundation.
"Everyone was so generous not only by raising
funds, but also donating pyjamas, books, sporting
equipment, toys and toiletries which will be shared
among the children in our local area who are in
foster care. The funds raised go towards training
more volunteers because every child in foster care
deserves a Pyjama Angel" she said. Carmel thanked
everyone who joined in the fun of the day, and to the
Cabarlah Golf Club for their support.

Anyone interested in joining Monday ladies social
golf is welcome. "We are a group of ladies learning to
play golf, and having lots of fun doing it," Carmel says.
"Some ladies have gone on to play in competition golf,
but don't be deterred if you've never played, come
along and try it out. We are a friendly, fun social group
who enjoy learning a new skill and have a laugh while
we're at it. We enjoy social outings, playing golf and
trips away. It's a nice way to start the week with a few
hours out on the golf course on a Monday morning." If
