"The President, P J Collins, the Club Captain, Michael, and the Lady Captain, June, were the main guests at a reception hosted by the Mayor of Armagh City and District Council, Thomas O'Hanlon. The function, on Wednesday 24 February, was held in the Palace itself, a fitting venue given the Clubhouse and Course are set within the Palace Demense. Among the Golf Club guests were Council members, Honorary members, Trustees, Ladies' Committee and Club Team Captains.
In his address, the Mayor referred to the good relationship the Council has always enjoyed with the Golf Club and praised the various fundraising activities for charity in which the Club is involved. A very pleasant supper and refreshments were provided and gifts were exchanged as a memento of the occasion. The Captain presented the Mayor with a Golf Club tie, while the Golf Club's "Centenary Story" was presented by the author himself, Jack O'Hare. The Mayor suitably replied and when proceedings were finally brought to a close, some of those who didn't have to get up next morning proceeded to the Golf Club!"
